<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Warnke called it one of the worst crimes he&#8217;d ever seen in his 43 years in law enforcement.<br>&#8216;There&#8217;s some things you&#8217;ll take to the grave. This to me was pure evil.&#8217; <br>&#8216;Right now, I´ve got hundreds of people in a community that are grieving the loss of two families, and this is worldwide. These families are across different continents,&#8217; Werne said.<br>&#8216;We´ve got to show them that we can give them justice.&#8217;<br>Salgado was previously convicted of first-degree robbery with the use of a firearm in Merced County, where the family&#8217;s trucking business is located. <br>He was also convicted of attempted false imprisonment and an attempt to prevent or dissuade a victim or witness.<br>In 2007 he was 11 years in state prison for those charges.<br>Salgado was released in 2015 after serving eight years in prison and a further three on probation.<br>He also has a conviction for possession of a controlled substance, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. <br>Surveillance video showed the suspect leading the brothers, whose hands were zip-tied, into the back seat of Amandeep Singh&#8217;s pickup truck. Salgado then drove the brothers away and returned for Jasleen and her baby, who he led into the truck and drove away before 9.30am.<br>Several hours later, Singh&#8217;s truck was found on fire 10 miles away in the town of Winton.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">By the time law enforcement arrived at Amandeep Singh&#8217;s home, where a family member tried to contact him and the couple, they were likely already dead.<br>&#8216;I fully believe that there was one other person involved. We don&#8217;t have any evidence to support that. It&#8217;s just the circumstances surrounding this,&#8217; said Warnke.<br>Before the heartbreaking discovery of the bodies, relatives of the victims asked anyone who owns a convenience store or gas station in the area to check their surveillance cameras for images of the suspect or the family. ;<br>&#8216;Please help us out, come forward, so my family comes home safe,&#8217; Sukhdeep Singh, a brother of the victims, said, his voice breaking. ;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">According to County records, on the night of December 12th, Salgado robbed a family for whom he formerly worked at gun point. He had been fired.<br>The man, who owned a central valley trucking company, said Salgado had worked for him for two years.<br>&#8216;I went to shut the front door when he pulled out a gun and held it to the back of my head,&#8217; the man said. Salgado then duct taped the man&#8217;s hands together, as well as his wife, his 16-year-old daughter and his daughter&#8217;s friends. He then proceeded to steal &#8216;all the money we had, rings, that kind of stuff,&#8217; the man said.<br>The man said Salgado even took the ring off his wife&#8217;s finger, before making the family jump into the pool and threatened to kill them if they reported the crime to police.<br>Despite the threat the family filed a report. Salgado who was on active probation at the time of that robbery was arrested the next morning, convicted and sent to prison.<br></p>
