A second family of one of four victims killed in a shooting spree across southern Idaho earlier this month released a statement on Wednesday.

The family of Angelica Pearl Medina thanked the community for their overwhelming support during this tragic time.

“Our families (Medina-Tellez) deeply appreciate this amazing community,” the statement read. “We are eternally grateful for everyone’s to not only our family but also the families of the other victims. To them we wish you strength and peace. Our sincerest of thoughts and prayers are with you. Thank you, the Medinas-Tellez.”

Medina, 35, was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head in the northwest bedroom of a Rupert home on July 8, one of four victims in what authorities are calling a quadruple homicide that spanned Cassia and Minidoka counties.

Benjamin Roy Naylor, 56, of Burley, has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder plus a deadly weapon enhancement in connection with the shootings. However, his preliminary hearings have been postponed as he undergoes a court-ordered competency evaluation.

Medina’s family painted a picture of a devoted mother, loving wife and joyful spirit who brought light to everyone around her, in her obituary posted to the Morrison Payne Funeral Home & Crematory in Burley.

She met her future husband Isaac Medina while attending high school in 2006, and the two quickly became sweethearts. After Isaac’s proposal in 2007, they married in March 2013 and went on to have four children: Neriah, Emily, Damian and Olivia.

”Angelica was an amazing mother,” her obituary reads. “She enjoyed bowling, making TikToks with her children and would often send short videos out to her family of her children as they grew and of the silly things they would do.”

Known for her infectious personality, Angelica was described as “gentle and kind but unstoppable, playful yet profound.” Her family noted her remarkable ability to bring joy to others, writing that she “was a true jokester as she had the ability to make even the weariest of hearts laugh.”

Angelica maintained close relationships with her extended family, calling her mother every morning and on her way to work. She loved going to the gym, taking long walks with her family and planning “sister dates” with her siblings. Her family fondly remembered how she was the only one who could wrestle with her little brother Rudy “without consequence” and how she especially enjoyed teasing her husband Isaac, interactions that “always ended with a laugh or two.”

She was beloved by her in-laws Jose and Josefina Medina and cherished her relationships with her sisters-in-law Patty, Elizabeth and Veronica. Angelica spoke often about her pride in her nieces Celeste and Catalina and her nephew Julian.

”Angelica will be deeply missed by family and friends and all those who knew her,” the obituary states. “Her beauty, kindness and love will live on through her children in Neriah’s courage, in Emily’s kindness, in Damian’s wonder and Olivia’s bright smile.”

The July 8 shooting spree that claimed Angelica’s life also took the lives of Kelly Jenks, 66,and Donna Jenks, 62, a Burley couple found shot to death in their home, and Dennis Mix, 77, who was found dead inside a vehicle parked behind a closed café in Heyburn.

The investigation began when police responded to the Rupert home where Medina was found. Doorbell camera footage showed a man matching Naylor’s description approaching the residence and leaving with what appeared to be a firearm. Naylor was arrested later that evening during a traffic stop. He remains incarcerated at the Cassia County Jail in Burley.

The case continues as Naylor undergoes competency evaluations, with court appearances scheduled for August 1 and August 20.
