Takala Robinson (right) was sentenced in January in connection with a string of crimes across Maryland, including a 2022 murder near Baltimore and a batch of armed robberies on the Ocean City Boardwalk. Police did not release a photo of co-conspirator Jordan Moses, now 19, because he was a minor at the time of his arrest.
After robbing and murdering an acquaintance, a pair of teenagers from the Baltimore area drove to Ocean City to continue their crime spree. They targeted Senior Weekers near the Boardwalk using the same ghost gun they stole off the murder victim.
Now, three years later, those suspects have been sentenced to decades in prison, part of a bundled set of charges – including murder, armed robbery, assault, and weapons charges –brought forth in a 36-count indictment by the office of Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown.
Jordan Moses, 19, of Glen Burnie, and Takala Robinson, 22, of Baltimore City, were primarily charged in the June 2022 shooting death of 17-year-old Anthony Johnson in Glen Burnie. Additional charges stemmed from other incidents in Baltimore County, Anne Arundel County, the District of Columbia, and Worcester County.
Led by the Attorney General’s Organized Crime Unit, the investigation characterized the pair’s activity as being part of a larger criminal enterprise involving weapons and other violent acts to control their territory, according to the 22-page indictment filed June 2023 in Worcester County Circuit Court.
“This shocking and senseless string of serious crimes traumatized victims and claimed a young man’s life, sobering reminders of the devastating damage caused by violent criminal organizations armed with illegal guns,” Brown said in a statement released Monday.
