A Baltimore teenager has been arrested and charged in connection with the August killing of a 15-year-old girl, police said Monday.
The unidentified 16-year-old male suspect was arrested Friday in connection with the shooting death of Ja’Nyi Weeden, the Baltimore Police Department said.
He is charged with first-degree murder.
Authorities did not say if he would be charged as an adult.
Weeden was shot around 1 a.m. on Aug. 10. Officers responded to the 3700 block of Gelston Drive where they found her shot multiple times.
She was taken to a hospital where she was pronounced dead later that day.
Her death shocked the surrounding community, according to local reports. Mayor Brandon Scott reflected on her death days after she died.
In one of the most criminal lenient cities in America, no way he gets charged as an adult. The criminal justice system will fail the victim and her family as they always do. He’ll do 3 months in Juvy and go on to kill someone else by the time he’s 18. But hey, at least we won’t hurt the psychopath criminal’s feelings by trying to hold him accountable with our systemic racism or whatever they’re calling it these days.
will all the celebrities speak out on her death? Will Al Sharpton and Jesse show up to demand justice? Will there be riots and protests and the peaceful burning of city blocks? No who am I kidding.
The only way Al Sharpton would be there if big $$$$$$ were involved. Have you not noticed that he is at everything the government has paid off the people with million like George Floyd??????
