A deadly stabbing<\/a> in a historically quiet and affluent Northern California community is raising new concerns about targeted violence after disturbing online posts surfaced appearing to reference the victim weeks before he was killed.<\/p>\n

Officers were dispatched at about 11:36 a.m. Saturday to a home on Westminster Place in Lafayette for reports of a “suspicious subject,” according to the Contra Costa County Sheriff\u2019s Office. When officers entered the residence, they found 34-year-old Christopher Jaber dead.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement sources told KTVU<\/a> the killing involved a hatchet.<\/p>\n

A man later identified as 35-year-old David Prince of Chico was detained nearby shortly after the discovery and ultimately arrested in connection with the killing. He was booked into the Martinez Detention Facility on a murder charge and is being held on $1 million bail.<\/p>\n

As investigators work to determine a motive, attention has turned to a series of cryptic Facebook posts linked to an account bearing the suspect\u2019s name.<\/p>\n

According to KTVU, one post from February referenced Jaber by name and included his Lafayette address alongside a message invoking “the chaos of the supernatural.” About a week before the killing, the same account escalated the language, writing: “Can someone please kill this man.”<\/p>\n

Authorities have not confirmed whether Prince authored the posts or whether he knew the victim.<\/p>\n

Still, neighbors told KTVU the messages, now circulating within the community, have fueled fears that the attack may have been deliberate.<\/p>\n

“It seems like he was looking for him,” neighbor Christina Coleridge told the station, adding that she witnessed the suspect being taken into custody<\/a>. She described him as handcuffed with plastic bags placed over his hands.<\/p>\n

Legal experts say the posts, if tied to Prince, could play a key role in court. KTVU legal analyst Michael Cardoza said prosecutors could use them to argue premeditation, while defense attorneys may point to them as evidence of diminished mental capacity.<\/p>\n

Jaber had previously been placed under a conservatorship, according to court records cited by KTVU. His family has declined to comment.<\/p>\n

The killing has rattled Lafayette, part of the Lamorinda area, including Moraga and Orinda, a region known for its affluent communities. Home prices in the city typically range from about $1.8 million to $2 million, according to data from Zillow.<\/a><\/p>\n

Homicides in Lafayette are exceedingly rare. Police records show<\/a> no reported killings from 2013 through 2024, and none in 2025, underscoring the rarity of such violence in a community frequently ranked among the safest in the region.<\/a><\/p>\n

The investigation remains ongoing. Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact the Contra Costa County Sheriff\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
