APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Gregory Juedes allegedly killed his father in his Appleton home, and then returned to the scene to “make sure he was down for the count,” according to a criminal complaint filed Thursday.
Juedes, 45, was charged with first-degree intentional homicide for the Nov. 24 death of Daniel Juedes Sr., 74, at a home on South Sanders Street. He’s also charged with attempted to flee an officer, and resisting, after allegedly leaving the scene and being arrested in Kaukauna.
Juedes made his initial court Thursday, where a $2 million cash bond was set. He returns to court Jan. 2 for a status conference.
According to the criminal complaint, police responded to the home about 7:35 a.m. A neighbor reported hearing ten gun shots. Police entered the home, found Juedes Sr., but there were no signs of life. A total of 14 ammunition casings were found in the home.
A short time later, police located Juedes’ vehicle. Eventually, a PIT maneuver was used to stop his vehicle. Juedes ran, police used a taser to subdue him, and continued to resist arrest.

During the trip to the hospital to treat Juedes, he commented on the murder.
“I think I got him with every round. And then one in the back of the head for good measure.” He then continued, saying “I went back to check (to) make sure he was down for the count”,” the complaint quotes Juedes as saying.
No motive is cited in the eight-page complaint.
An autopsy “identified 15 gunshot wound tracks to the victim and located three fully intact bullets from the body,” the complaint states.
