Nikki Dion Metcalf
July 19, 1980 - Feb. 10, 2021
Nikki Dion Metcalf was born to Barry Newton Metcalf and Sandra Dean Keisner on July 19, 1980, in Eureka, CA. Nikk had two biological children Barry Metcalf and Virginia Truby-Metcalf. He was engaged to Margarette Moon. Margarette Moon had three children Shelly, Chloe and Bubba, Nikk accepted them as if they were his own. It came naturally to Nikk to be a protective and caring father to all five of his children.
After Nikk’s Dad tragically passed just before Nikk’s thirteenth birthday he was on a mission or a path of destruction. Nikk often times showed no fear. He would fight or box with the biggest guy. He would wade in to the ocean far away from shore only to look further out until something from the shore drew him back in as if the ocean spit him out. He would climb trees to the highest large branch so he could sit at the top and gaze at the view. At one time in his life the path of destruction progressed
Mauricio Sanchez-Johnson
Mauricio Sanchez-Johnson, the suspect in this month’s Bear River Rancheria triple homicide, and Von Eric Keener, the man who fled with Sanchez-Johnson after the crime, both appeared yesterday virtually in the 3rd District courtroom of Tooele County, Utah presided over by Judge Dianna Gibson.
When it was 18-year-old Sanchez-Johnson’s turn to sit before Judge Gibson, the corrections officer could be heard asking another, “Can you grab the kid?” Sanchez-Johnson subsequently appeared alongside Public Defender Brad Schofield who requested time to be able to meet with his client because “I was just assigned the case yesterday.”
Judge Gibson approved the request and scheduled the next hearing for March 2, 2021, at 3:30 p.m. In response, Sanchez-Johnson simply replied, “Alright.”
