On March 18, 1997, Laxma, a medical professional, killed his wife, her 13-year-old daughter and his father-in-law in Brookline, Massachusetts. The three victims were shot in the head execution-style in their beds.

Three days later, after an All-Points-Bulletin was put out for him, he was shot and killed when he pulled a gun on a sheriff's deputy during an unrelated traffic stop in Elko, Nevada.

After the familicide was discovered, investigators turned to Reddy as a suspect when they determined that the killer used a key to enter the apartment. Brookline police and Massachusetts State Police flew to Cleveland, Reddy's last known address, after discovering the bodies. They learned that Reddy had left in the middle of his second year of residency in internal medicine at St. Luke's Hospital in Cleveland.

Reddy recently visited his family in Brookline, but had not been seen in weeks, friends said. The family is originally from Andhrapradesh in southern India, but moved to the United States so he could study medicine.

He received his medical degree in August 1979 from Gandhi Medical College in India and interned at Cabrini Medical Center in New York City from July 1993 to June 1994.
