Three Men Deceased Following Rail Road Flat Shooting At Pot Grow (Updated..Names of Deceased Released)

Rail Road Flat, CA...(Updated the Calaveras County Coroner's Office has released the names of the deceased. The three killed while allegedly trespassing near a marijuana grow are 44-year-old Terry Glen Jr. of Waterford, 55-year-old Wes David Smith of Snelling and 60-year-old Robert Daniel Haney of Modesto.) On 10/20/15, at about 0920 hours, Deputies responded to a parcel of land on the 1400 block of South Rail Road Flat Road near the town of Railroad Flat for a third party report of a shooting, whereas three people were reportedly shot. Upon arrival deputies discovered three deceased adult male Caucasians, two of which were lying on a dirt roadway, the third was lying off the roadway. Medical personnel responded and confirmed that all three victims were deceased.


We were told off the record that the decedents had marijuana plants in their arms but it is still unclear if they had weapons.


Investigators were told the following: during the early morning hours of 10/20/15, an adult male, identified as Leon Michael Grammer (38 years old), who resides at the address, encountered at least three trespassing subjects on his property that were allegedly stealing marijuana from a medical marijuana garden that was located on the property. Mr. Grammer telephoned his brother, Jeremiah Lee Barrett (30 years old), of Jackson, and asked him to respond to the property. Mr. Grammer allegedly armed himself with a firearm and discharged several rounds towards the trespassers. Upon arrival, Mr. Barrett confronted the three subjects running on the roadway and allegedly shot them with a shotgun. Grammer and Barrett were interviewed by detectives and were subsequently arrested. Leon Michael Grammer was booked into the Calaveras County Jail on the charges of Penal Code 32 (Accessory) and Penal Code 182 (Conspiracy), Bail $30,000. Jeremiah Lee Barrett was booked into the jail on charges of Penal Code 187 (Murder) and Penal Code 182 (Conspiracy), Bail $2,500,000.

Release of identification on the three decedents will be pending next of kin notification. An Autopsy has been scheduled later this week. If you have any information or knowledge of the incident, please contact the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Department Anonymous Tip Line at (209) 754-6030.
