Man sentenced to 365years for killing 3 people over a facebook post
New Jersey man has been sentenced to 375 years in prison custody for murdering two children and a college student in 2016 over a Facebook post.
The judge sentenced Jeremy Arrington to three consecutive life sentences for killing 7-year-old Ariel Little Whitehurst, her 11-year-old brother Al-Jahon Whitehurst, and 23-year-old family friend Syasia McBurroughs.
Arrington was convicted in March 2022 on 28 charges related to the home invasion, as he tortured six people. The judge added consecutive 50-year sentences to Arrington’s time for each of the three convictions for the surviving victims.
The reason for Arrington’s actions was that he saw share the victims shared a police report on Facebook identifying him as a suspect in a previous shooting and sexual assault.
Arrington was gone by the time the cops arrived at the scene but was later arrested following a standoff at another home in Newark, New Jersey.
