Zamora tells judge: "I kill for God."

MOUNT VERNON — Isaac Zamora, the man accused of killing six people Tuesday during a deadly rampage in Skagit County, told a judge this afternoon, "I kill for God. I listen to God."

Zamora, 28, was charged this afternoon with six counts of first-degree murder and four counts of first-degree assault with a firearm or deadly weapon in Skagit County District Court. He also was ordered held on $5 million bail.

At the end of his arraignment, Zamora was presented with court documents and was asked to sign them to acknowledge he had been charged.

"I'll sign," Zamora told District Court Judge Warren M. Gilbert.

Then he said, "I kill for God. I listen to God."

At his first court appearance Wednesday Zamora remained silent.

Zamora is accused of killing five people, including Skagit County sheriff's deputy Anne Jackson, and injuring two others in his Alger neighborhood Tuesday. He is also accused of killing another man and wounding two others as he drove from Alger to Mount Vernon, where he was taken into custody.

The Skagit County Coroner's Office has identified those slain as Jackson, 40; Chester Rose, 58, of Alger; David Radcliffe, 57, of Clear Lake, Skagit County; Greg Gillum, 38, of Mount Vernon; Julie Binschus, 48, of Alger; and LeRoy Lange, 64, of Methow, Okanogan County.

Dennise Zamora, the suspect's mother, said her son had been entering neighbors' homes throughout much of Tuesday. She said that when Rose called to say that he was inside his home, Dennise Zamora told him to call police.

Jackson responded to the Zamora home at 2:50 p.m. Dennise Zamora sent the deputy up to Rose's house.

Fellow deputies, becoming concerned when Jackson hadn't checked in more than an hour later, showed up at the scene and found Jackson and Rose dead at Rose's house. They reported they were under fire at the home.
