đź’” Triple Killer Jordan Monaghan Sentenced to Life After Murder of Two Children and His Girlfriend
Jordan Monaghan, 34, has been sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted of the murders of his infant daughter Ruby, his toddler son Logan, and his girlfriend Evie Adams in a case that unfolded over several years and shocked investigators with its disturbing pattern of repeated violence.
The case began in January 2013, when Monaghan’s 24-day-old daughter Ruby died while in his care. At the time, he claimed the infant had suddenly stopped breathing and that he had attempted to resuscitate her. However, inconsistencies in his account led investigators to question the circumstances surrounding her death. Despite concerns, the case was initially treated as non-suspicious, and no arrests were made.
Months later, in August 2013, tragedy struck again when Monaghan’s 21-month-old son Logan was found ᴅᴇᴀᴅ under similarly suspicious circumstances. Evidence later revealed that Logan had been smothered by his father while in his care at a swimming pool changing area. Monaghan then attempted to conceal the act by pushing the child home in a pram with the rain cover down, suggesting he was asleep.
Despite growing suspicions surrounding both infant deaths, Monaghan was not immediately charged and remained free on bail while investigations continued.
Several years later, in 2019, Monaghan was living with his girlfriend, 23-year-old Evie Adams. During this period, authorities say he engaged in further violent conduct that ultimately led to her death. Evie was found after consuming a lethal combination of prescription drugs, including tramadol and diazepam. Investigators later determined that the substances had been provided by Monaghan, who attempted to stage the scene as a suicide by leaving behind a fabricated note.
Toxicology results and forensic evidence contradicted the staged narrative, leading authorities to reopen the wider investigation into Monaghan’s past. This ultimately connected the deaths of Ruby and Logan to the same individual, revealing a pattern of repeated and deliberate harm.
Monaghan was arrested and charged in connection with all three deaths in 2021. His trial became one of the most closely followed cases in the region, as prosecutors presented extensive evidence detailing the circumstances of each victim’s death.
Throughout the proceedings, Monaghan showed no expression of remorse, a factor that weighed heavily during sentencing. The court ultimately found him guilty on all counts.
He has now been sentenced to life imprisonment for the murders of Ruby, Logan, and Evie, bringing a formal conclusion to a case that spanned nearly a decade.
Authorities and community members have described the case as deeply disturbing, not only for the loss of life but for the repeated opportunities that were missed to intervene earlier.
For the families of the victims, the sentencing marks the end of a long and painful pursuit of justice—though the grief left behind will endure far beyond the courtroom.
