MEMPHIS, TN (abc24.com) - The man accused of fatally shooting his girlfriend and her parents in a domestic fight has been formally charged by Memphis Police with their murders.

28-year-old Sedrick Clayton is charged with three counts of First Degree Murder for the deaths of 23-year-old Pashea Fisher, 56-year-old Arithio Fisher and 46-year-old Patricia Fisher.

According to MPD investigators, Clayton was with Pashea Fisher at her family's home on the 1600-block of Preston when they began arguing just before 6:00am on January 19, 2012. As the argument escalated, Pashea's parent tried to intervene when all three were shot. Pashea and her father, Arithio, were pronounced dead on the scene. Patricia Fisher died a short time later at The MED.

Clayton fled the scene in Pashea's SUV with their 4-year-old daughter. After communicating with Clayton's family, officers reached him by phone and convinced him to turn himself in to police. Clayton surrendered at 8:45am at the Memphis Police station on E. Raines. The child was unharmed.

Sedrick Clayton is being held without bond at the Shelby County Jail. He is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 23rd.

myersbraden, Of course I'm racist. I live in Memphis, I work for a living, and I read the news. It's pretty hard to NOT have some degree of racism. Plus, it is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to not be racist if you've ever waited tables, in the south. I don't think my original comment was out of line with that, you just misread what I was saying. The dude does have a mullet after all.

Cindy: the thing is,,,this animal is too STUPID to figure out he is gonna be somebodies b*tch real soon. Bottom feeders like this have no place in our society,,they need to be put down like the dogs they are. Look at the tattoos on his neck guareentee you he is gang affiliated which means he should have been exterminated years ago and we would not have to pay for this upright walking trash with our tax dollars. Military actions need to be used against this cancer called GANGS!!!

There are so many lessons to be learned from this tragic event!! My deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased. First and foremost, this tells us if your relationship is volatile, end it as quickly and humanely as possible. Another point out of this tragedy is once you have ended the relationship let it be over, neither party should string the other along. So much more to say but it is probably obvious, except that the "wannabe tough guys" and "gangsters" need to study this young man's photo. He is posing and trying to impress upon the public just how tough he is. If he appreciated for one moment, the amount of trouble that he is in, he would take a decent photo and try to paint some sense of remorse on his face in the process. Taking a photo like that doesn't scare anybody; his fate depends on the judge and jury at this point; he ought to be trying to portray himself as an ordinary person caught up in the moment. One can easily assume that most citizens will have seen this photo and are thinking what an absolute reject; he actually looks a bit proud and arrogant!! I look at this photo and I want the book thrown at him, and anything else that we can do to punish him and deter others!! Lesson, have the decency to look normal and/or remorseful when you've done such a ghastly deed. These were good people, from all accounts and they will be sorely missed. You have robbed your own child of a normal life, especially if she saw you do it.

So sad, you killed a whole family because you were upset, or as your sister put it, the dad kicked you and your gun fell out and all you could do was pick it up and start spraying.. Animals dont need guns.. this is ridiculous
