SAN BERNARDINO -- The gunman in the deadly fast-food restaurant
shooting of his stepdaughter, her husband and her two sons left a note
that describes a messy relationship with his stepdaughter, police
said.
The handwritten letter is titled "Warrant from God for Roxanne," and
it details alleged sexual encounters that led to a pregnancy and
abortion.
The letter's contents haven't been verified and detectives plan to
question the hospitalized woman, according to police Sgt. Dave Dillon.

Jimmy Schlager left the letter before going to a Del Taco restaurant
on Highland Avenue Saturday afternoon and opening fire on Roxanne
Trujillo, her husband Alex, and her sons, Adrian and Ethan.
He reportedly shouted "What do you think of me now?!" before he shot
them at close range, said Lt. Jarrod Burguan of the San Bernardino
Police Department.
According to Burguan, Shlager was carrying two semi-automatic weapons
and had an extensive criminal history.
Alex Trujillo, 33, died at the scene and his 6-year-old Adrian was
declared dead after being rushed to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center,
according Burguan.
Roxeanne Trujillo and her 5-year-old son Ethan were rushed to an area
hospital in critical condition. Ethan is now said to be in fair
condition.
Schlager was in critical condition after he shot himself in the head.
He was taken to a hospital where he later died of the wound.
The woman's mother who was married to Schlager died several years ago,
and investigators were trying to determine how well Schlager and his
stepdaughter got along as police sought a motive for the shooting,
Burguan said.
Schlager, who is from Lancaster in northern Los Angeles County, had an
extensive criminal record dating back to 1972 that included assault
with a deadly weapon and a restraining order taken out by a co-worker.
Despite living an hour's drive away, Schlager had many ties to San
Bernardino and once lived just a few blocks from the restaurant,
Burguan said.
Five others were in the Del Taco at the time of the shooting, but were
not targeted.
