The Thurston County Sheriff’s Office is looking for a man they want to question about a triple murder near Lacey last week.

Thurston County Chief Deputy Dave Pearsall says investigators found half a pound of methamphetamine, heroin, thousands of dollars in cash and about half a dozen firearms in a travel trailer in the 500 block of Dutterow Road Southeast where two men and a woman were found dead on Wednesday, June 22.

The three people who were killed were 36 year-old Gerald M. Berkey of Elma, 28 year-old Jackson L. Edens of Olympia, and 31 year-old Terron R. McGrath of Olympia.

Lamere is described as 23 years old, 5 feet 11 inches tall, 160 pounds with brown eyes. He also goes by the name Ricky.

The sheriff’s office says Enrique Jodeci Lamere is considered to be a material witness in the investigation.  He is known to frequent the Nisqually Valley and his last known address is in Lacey.

Anyone who knows Lamere’s whereabouts is asked to contact detective Elkins at 360-701-0000 or detective Clark at 360-549-6327. The detectives may also be reached through dispatch at 360-704-2740.
