After killing his mother the night before by stabbing her with a butcher knife and then shooting her in the back of the head, he killed his wife, also. Then he climbed the observation tower on U of T's campus where he preceeded to pick people of with a sniper rifle for 96 minutes. When police were finally able to get close enough, officer Ramiro Martinez shot and killed Whitman with a single shot. When the gunfire finally ended, 18 people lay dead and another 30 were wounded. One was a woman 8 months pregnant. A bullet shattered her unborn baby's head. Upon Whitman's own request written in a note, an autopsy revealed a brain tumor.

Why did the cayuse murder the Whitman and?
The Cayuse Tribe killed Dr. Whitman because he is the reason settlers, also known as the whites, came to Walla Walla Washington. This angered the Cayuse Indians. The whites had brought measles with them and unfortunately they started to spread and the Cayuse got measles. Dr. Whitman was the shaman which means it's his duty to restore their health. Many Cayuse died of measles but the whites got well. The Cayuse lacked immunity so this is why it was hard to restore their health. Joe Lewis, a white settler, wanted to take over Dr. Whitman's place as shaman so he spread rumors to the Cayuse that Marcus was poisoning the Cayuse and since Dr. Whitman was white, he was helping the whites. The Cayuse Tribe believed this and killed Dr. Whitman in his own home. 13 or 72 people were killed during the Massacre.
