Jordan Dordell - murdered in Binghamton, New York

Jordan Dordell, age 22, died on November 4, 2013, at his residence in Binghamton, New York.

Jordan was murdered around 6:00 a.m. He and his pregnant girlfriend, age 19, were both beaten, stabbed repeatedly, bound up in their basement and set on fire. The girlfriend broke a window and crawled out. She was saved.

Jordan was hugely popular. He was friendly, open and had a sense of humour. He liked BMX biking. He put family and friends first. He would give you the shirt off of his back. He was starting a new family. He was looking towards the future.

Loved ones stated that he stepped up and took responsibility for his life.

Nigel Saunders, age 25, and Julian R. Talamantez IV, age 21, have been charged with felony counts of first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder in connection with Jordan's death.

It is believed that this murder was undertaken during the course of a robbery. What do

Angels of God, pray for Jordan

most 22 year olds have that anyone would want to steal? Most have nothing that would warrant a violent murder. 

Nigel Saunders had previously been a room-mate of Jordan Dordell. We hope this wasn't a nasty drug deal or a drug debt gone bad. There was a lot of rage involved in this murder and rage is often associated with "money owed".  

Regardless of the motive, the death of Jordan is tragic. 

Jordan is survived by many loving friends and relatives including his brother, Corey Dordell; his sisters Lacey Salano and Mandi Dordell; his fiancee, Rachael Marsh; and his "father figure" Mark Warner. Jordan was predeceased by his mother Beth Dordell.

Pray for all who are the victims of the Lost Ones, the Violent and the Merchants of Death. Amen.

Pray that Jordan is in heaven. Pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
