Dana Ewell Biography

Dana Ewell is one of the most popular and richest Criminal who was born on January 28, 1971 in Sunnyside, California, United States. Dana Ewell was the younger of two children born to Dale Alan (b. 1932) and Glee Ethel Ewell (b. 1935). Dale Ewell was a United States Air Force veteran who became a multi-millionaire businessman who concentrated on the sales of small aircrafts through his company, Western Piper Sales, Inc. Glee had devoted much of her life to charity and public service, even working as an Spanish translator with the CIA in the 1950s, and later, she was a member of the State Bar of California committee which evaluated judges. The sister of Ewell, Tiffany Ann (b. 1967) was just a few weeks short of her birthday of 25 at the moment of her death had been a doctoral student and Ewell himself was a graduate student and had an MBA in finance in finance from Santa Clara University (SCU).

In the time Ewell was in college and in his time at SCU, he was attributing his father’s achievements to himself, and was portraying himself as a successful businessman when the truth was that he had never had such an prior experience. The Santa Clara newspaper and SCU’s yearbook both featured articles about Ewell in the year 1990, describing Ewell in the form of “a self-made millionaire” who enjoyed the luxury offered by his lack of achievement. When Ewell’s deceit was exposed his parents changed their estate plan. The extended family believe they knew that Dale Ewell planned on ending the financial support he provided to his son upon his graduation from college, which is which could be the reason for the murders.

Joel Patrick Radovcich, a college friend of Ewell’s, abruptly dropped out of school shortly after the murders and also came under suspicion. Ewell was described as being obsessed with money and social status, while Radovcich was preoccupied with guns and explosives. Ewell had come under suspicion only days after the murders when Curtice had walked him through the crime scene and thought his reactions highly unusual, later recalling his impressions as “that kid’s dirty.” Dana and Radovcich attracted additional suspicion by both occupying the Ewell family home only a few weeks after the murders. The pair were soon reported making many cash purchases such as helicopter flight lessons (despite Radovcich being unemployed) and communicating via a complex system of pagers and pay telephone calls, seemingly designed to avoid being overheard. The police kept Ewell and Radovcich under close surveillance for several months. In one instance, a detective wore a recording device and stood close to Radovcich at a pay phone in May 1993, overhearing him make comments such as “they don’t have evidence. They will try to catch you in a lie.”

Forensic analysis found the murder weapon was a high-end 9mm specialty rifle manufactured by Feather Industries in Trinidad, Colorado. Company records showed one such rifle had been purchased by Ernest Jack Ponce, a friend of the Radovcich family, shortly before the murders. Ponce admitted buying the rifle for Radovcich, but denied knowing it would be used for a crime. Ponce had further concealed evidence after the murders, making him an accessory. He was granted immunity from prosecution and agreed to testify against Ewell and Radovcich, who were arrested in early 1995.

Dana Ewell Net Worth

Dana Ewell is one of the richest Criminal from United States. According to our analysis, Wikipedia, Forbes & Business Insider, Dana Ewell's net worth $5 Million. (Last Update: December 11, 2023)

Police investigated the background of the victims and discovered possible motives for the incident. in the 70s Dale Ewell had sold aircrafts to an California man known as Frank Lambe who had been found guilty of drug smuggling and after that, Dale assumed the company. Dale Ewell had also been involved in a tense real estate development partnership with Ben Ewell, his brother Ben that could cause investors to lose millions of dollars. Investigative investigations have ruled out these elements as possible motives behind the murders.

After the murders, the police were in the Ewell house to investigate the scene of the crime. The investigation was conducted through Fresno County Sheriff’s Office homicide detectives John Souza and Chris Curtice. They suspect that the perpetrator was staying in the house, waiting for the family’s return. Glee Ewell was shot four times. Tiffany as well as Dale Ewell were each shot at least once. The murders were evidently carefully planned and executed like the time that the shooter disposed of shell casings following the fatal shots. His aim seemed great not missing a single shot after firing several shots. A set of 9mm rounds that were purchased through Dale Ewell in the early 1970s, was discovered in the home . They were believed to be used to murder the Ewell family. The bullets found on the bodies of the victims showed indications that the gun had been equipped with a homemade silencer. Although the house was believed to be search for treasures Souza (with years of experience in investigating burglaries) concluded that the incident was staged to make it seem like the family members had tampered with the thief.

Dale, Glee and Tiffany Ewell were murdered on Sunday, April 19, 1992, in their home near Fresno. At the time of the murders, Ewell lived at the family home but was away with his girlfriend for the Easter weekend. The bodies were discovered two days after the murders, when Ewell notified family friends in Sunnyside that he was unable to contact his parents.

Jurors deliberated for eleven days. Although they considered Ponce’s testimony unreliable and suspected he was more involved with the murders than he admitted, they found Ewell and Radovcich both guilty of three counts of first degree murder. The murderers were subject to stricter sentencing due to aggravating circumstances: multiple victims, murder for profit, and lying in wait. Though facing a potential death sentence, both avoided that fate. They were sentenced on July 20, 1998 to life sentences without the possibility of parole. All appeals have been denied.
