Zajko was connected to the two guns found at the scene of Maland’s killing. Authorities recovered .40 caliber and .380-caliber semiautomatic handguns which had reportedly been purchased by Zajko in February 2024 at a Mount Tabor gun shop. Zajko is also wanted by authorities for the January 2023 murders of Richard and Rita Zajko, Zajko’s parents, who were killed inside their home in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. Zajko was also listed as a “person of interest” in the killing of a landlord in Vallejo, California. Zajko identifies as trans nonbinary.

One of the firearms was allegedly used by Teresa Youngblut, 21, of Seattle, Washington, to shoot Maland, while the other was found in the possession of Felix Bauckholt, a German national who reached for his gun during the attack but was killed in the shootout. Both identify as transgender. Youngblut has been charged with one count of using a deadly weapon and one count of discharging a firearm in connection to Maland’s death.
LaSota identifies as transgender and is accused of influencing followers to kill. LaSota has an arrest warrant in Delaware County, PA, after skipping multiple court hearings. An online obituary claimed that LaSota died in 2022.
