GRANTS PASS, Ore.– The suspect in a double murder hours after Thanksgiving was in Josephine County Court Monday afternoon for his arraignment.

In a phone interview with KSTU Salt Lake City, the family of the victims said the three men got into an argument which resulted in the shooting.
“An argument kind of gone bad,” said Melisa Severnak, Justin’s wife. “My daughter’s boyfriend’s dad came out from the room and was like, you know, ‘What’s going on?’ whatever and they got into an argument and he just started shooting ’em.”
Police are still investigating the motive behind the shooting. Gilmore is being charged with two felony counts of aggravated murder and a felony count of unlawful use of a weapon.
