Authorities have arrested the man suspected of killing of Baltimore tech entrepreneur Pava LaPere, a U.S. Marshal confirmed, as police announced plans to reveal details of the capture following a major manhunt.
Baltimore police said they planned to announce the “arrest of murder suspect Jason Billingsley” in a news conference at 11 a.m. ET Thursday. No further details were released and police did not immediately respond to requests for comment from NBC News early Thursday.
Deputy U.S. Marshal Albert Maresca Jr. confirmed Billingsley’s arrest to Baltimore-based NBC affiliate WBAL-TV. He said the suspect, who is 32, was apprehended at a train station in Bowie, Maryland.
This is a lot of words that doesn’t say much to me tbh. It’s straight up dishonest to pretend like “rehabilitation” will somehow keep people on the street safer than, ya know, locking up violent criminals where there literally isn’t a chance of them getting anyone. I’m talking about violent criminals and you go off on “what about people who got arrested for weed”
