MURRAY, Utah (ABC4) – Two men who were previously charged with raping a 14-year-old girl along with another man who filmed the incident were sentenced to 48 months of probation on March 9 as a reduction of their original sentence of 1 to 15 years in Utah State Prison.
The men were initially charged on Sept. 9 of 2017 after the victim allegedly snuck out during a sleepover to meet up with the men, as arranged on Snapchat. From there, they went to a mall parking lot, a hookah bar & a party at home. She told police that the “last thing she remembered was leaving the party & being in the back seat of the car & 1 of the males was kissing her & she told him to stop.”
Officers were later informed that a video had been shot of 2 of the 3 men raping the girl. According to court records, the victim was unconscious throughout most of the incident.
Following a police investigation, Lecalire Donjim “LA”, 29, & his brother Richard Djassera, 26, were arrested. Djassera admitted to filming Donjim & “Dojim’s friend” forcing themselves onto the victim because he “thought it was funny.”
Later information confirmed the arrest of the 3 men on 2 counts of aggravated sexual assault, a first-degree felony. Djassera additionally received 4 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor, a second-degree felony.
Following plea deals that were worked out between the 3 men & law enforcement officials, their prison sentence was officially suspended & replaced by a probation sentence after being incarcerated for three-and-a-half years.
NEW YORK CITY (WABC) - ATF agents in Washington, D.C. have arrested the suspect wanted for allegedly stalking homeless men sleeping on the streets of New York City and D.C.
The suspect fatally shot 2 people & wounded 3 more in less than 2 weeks.
He was picked up in southeast Washington early Tuesday morning.
A law enforcement source tells ABC News there is a high degree of confidence the man seen in surveillance photos & videos is the man arrested.
He was taken into custody in Washington, D.C.'s southeast section after allegedly shooting at least 5 homeless men & killing 2 of them in both DC & New York.
Mayor Eric Adams was in D.C. before the arrest & talked about the importance of apprehending the suspect quickly.
"We don't want to lose another resident in this city, in New York, or anywhere else. This person is carrying out a premeditated act of shooting innocent people," Adams said.
Police say ballistic evidence actually linked the same gun to all five shootings.
The DC Police Department's Head of the Homicide Unit, Captain Kevin Kentish, is credited with making the connection between the New York City and DC incidents.
Kintish, a native of Queens, New York, "happened to be scrolling through social media and saw the image of the NYC suspect," Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department Robert Contee III said. "During that review, he took that image to his team, based upon the similarities, came together with ATF & forensically connected these cases."
The NYPD says that link was critical & together, the 2 departments & ATF had a trove of clear images and video of the killer.
A $70,000 reward was offered for information leading to an arrest; $25,000 in NYC, $25,000 in DC & $20,000 from ATF. It's not yet known if anyone will claim the reward money.

NEW YORK (AP) — A search was underway Monday for a gunman who has been stalking homeless men sleeping on the streets of Washington, D.C., & New York City, fatally shooting 2 people & wounding 3 more in less than 2 weeks.
Police released surveillance photographs of the suspected gunman late Sunday, including 1 in which the hooded man can be seen holding a pistol in a blue glove.
The killer’s motive — if any — was unknown & authorities turned their attention Monday to trying to offer what protections they could to homeless people who might become targets.
New York Mayor Eric Adams said police officers & homeless outreach teams would focus on finding unhoused people in the subways & other locations & would urge them to seek refuge at city-owned shelters.
“The case is a clear & horrific intentional act of taking the life of someone, it appears, because he was homeless,” Adams said at a news conference late Sunday. “2 individuals were shot while sleeping on the streets, not committing a crime but sleeping on the streets.”
In Washington, city outreach workers were passing out flyers among the homeless population, urging people to “be vigilant” and featuring multiple pictures of the suspect.
“Our shelters have space and are ready to welcome residents needing a place to stay,” the flyers stated.
The latest violence underscored the urgency to get the homeless off the streets & into safe housing, said Jacquelyn Simone, the policy director for the Coalition for the Homeless in New York City.
“The reason that these people were attacked is because they didn’t have that safety of permanent housing,” she said. “And that’s why we really need to use these tragedies as an opportunity to redouble our efforts to ensure that people have a better option than the streets where they’re exposed to both the elements as well as people who might wish to do them harm.”
Simone & other advocates for the homeless called on the city to use vacant hotel rooms for temporary shelter for those who would rather stay on the streets rather than opt in dormitory-style housing.
The earliest known shooting happened at around 4 a.m. on March 3 in Washington D.C., police said, when a man was shot & wounded in the city’s Northeast section. A second man was wounded on March 8, just before 1:30 a.m.
At 3 a.m. the next day, March 9, police & firefighters found a dead man inside a burning tent. A subsequent autopsy revealed that the man had died of multiple stab & gunshot wounds.
The killer then apparently traveled north to New York City.
At 4:30 a.m. Saturday, a 38-year-old man sleeping on the street in Manhattan not far from the entrance to the Holland Tunnel was shot in his right arm as he slept.
The victim screamed & the gunman fled.
About 90 minutes later, the gunman fatally shot another man on Lafayette Street in SoHo. The man’s body was found in his sleeping bag just before 5 p.m. Saturday.

God knows I try not to take most of what Candace Owens seriously because I believe she intentionally pushes buttons for clout. But one of her recent tweets is beyond the pale.
"Absolutely appalling the way Russians are being treated in America and abroad," she wrote. "That our leaders and government institutions are allowing for ... and at times calling for this discrimination following their global "black lives matter" hysteria is quite telling. Russian lives matter."
The Russian Embassy in USA approved of this message and retweeted it from their official Twitter account.
Russian President Vladimir Putin's armed forces are currently committing war crimes in Ukraine. There's worldwide condemnation of his actions ... not the Russian people. Many of whom oppose their country's invasion of Ukraine.
Thoughts?
Absolutely appalling the way Russians are being treated in America and abroad. That our leaders and government institutions are allowing for—and at times calling for this discrimination following their global “black lives matter” hysteria is quite telling.

The drama between Kanye West, his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend Pete Davidson continued on Sunday, 3-13-2002, as the rapper took to his Instagram to unload about his 8-year old daughter North West's recent TikTok video and alleged texts between him and Davidson.
"I told y’all before about this tik tok stuff. Now my 8 year old on here singing she fell in love with an emo girl. Leftist don’t want fathers to have no say in our childrens lives," West wrote. "I don’t want my kids at godless Sierra Canyon school I got a voice and I’m not having this And Perez Hilton you still ain’t answer my question And never put my name next to the word abuse Don’t play with my name like that I’m a real person who wants the best for my children And DL Hughley is a pawn Yeah I know a king not supposed to address a pawn but I address everything and find addresses DL So don’t speak on me or my children I can afford to hurt u."
The shots at Hughley were in response to the comedian's comments in a recent interview with DJ Vlad, in which he said Kanye's recent behavior toward Kim as "stalker-ish."
"We gone stop letting practicing drug addicts be used by leftist to Willie Lynch our Future Black people with our own opinion are not allowed to speak in public I am the glitch DL." Kanye went on and degraded Hughley as he penned hateful curses at the comedian, "God does not like you You have no favor Your family hates you I would hate to be related to somebody who used to be famous Now you just known as a broke pawn."

LVIV, Ukraine (AP) Kyiv Region police says a U.S. video journalist has died and another journalist was injured when they were attacked by Russian forces in Ukraine.
The police force said Sunday on its official website that Russian troops opened fire on the car of Brent Renaud and another journalist in Irpin near the capital. It said the injured journalist was being taken to a hospital in Kyiv.
A New York Times spokesperson said Renaud, 50, was a “talented filmmaker who had contributed to The New York Times over the years.” It said he was not working for the publication at the time of his death.
The police force said: “Of course, the profession of journalism carries risks. Nonetheless, U.S. citizen Brent Renaud paid with his life trying to highlight the deceit, cruelty and ruthlessness of the aggressor.”
Asked about the reports, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan told CBS News that the U.S. government would be consulting with the Ukrainians to determine how this happened and would then “execute appropriate consequences.”
“This is part and parcel of what has been a brazen aggression on the part of the Russians, where they have targeted civilians, they have targeted hospitals, they have targeted places of worship, and they have targeted journalists,” Sullivan said.
