Update: Keith Luke - Charged with Murder Rampage of "Non-Whites"

In January, 2009, Keith Luke decided to cleanse his town of non-whites trying to destroy the white race. He placed a 9 mm gun, 200 rounds of ammunition, handcuffs, a hammer, a mouth gag, and a blindfold into his backpack. He then proceeded to his neighbor’s home, where he handcuffed and brutally raped a 22-year-old Cape Verdean immigrant. The woman’s sister, 20-year-old Selma Goncalves, tried to stop him. He shot and killed Selma, and then shot her sister in the chest through a white teddy bear she was clutching. He fled the scene, firing several shots at neighbors. He didn’t get far before he happened upon a neighborhood vagrant, 72-year-old Arlindo Depina Goncalves (no relation to the other victims), as he pushed his shopping cart. Luke shot Arlindo in the head, and told police he was “surprised” that Goncalves didn’t “die immediately.” He then shot him in the back — just to be sure. He drove off in his van again, but two police officers managed to head him off, and fired shots at his van, causing him to crash. He was arrested without further incident. But that’s when things got even scarier. He was read his Miranda rights and confessed to the Brockton police after his arrest that the killings were part of a plan to kill “non-whites” and he had planned to open fire on a bingo game at a local synagogue later that night. Luke was charged with two counts of murder as well as armed assault with intent to murder, aggravated rape and kidnapping. He pleaded not guilty, and is currently jailed without bond.
In August, 2010, Luke's lawyer is asking for his confession to be tossed out and wants the case dismissed. His lawyer argued the court can’t meet its “heavy burden of providing beyond a reasonable doubt that the statements made by the defendant were made following a knowing, intelligent and voluntary waiver of his right to remain silent.” His lawyer also notified the court he may pursue an insanity plea.
Luke also faces charges that he attacked a defense psychiatrist, Dr. Keith Ablow, who had gone to the Plymouth County jail to examine him. Krowski said he will now get a second psychiatrist to examine Luke.
The Superior Court Judge has scheduled a hearing to hear arguments.
