Prosecutors had previously said that the men would post videos on YouTube boasting about their exploits, and that their motivation for these murders and shootings was notoriety.
According to prosecutors, the trio followed three women as they left the 7th Star Lounge in Philadelphia's Strawberry Mansion section following a birthday celebration on Sept. 29, 2021. They then fired 49 shots into a vehicle, killing Chaundrah Jones, a mother of two, and wounding the two other women.
Investigators said they later learned that Sutton, Brunson-Gans, and Soto were hired by Jahlil Williams, the leader of another street group known as Omerta, to carry out the attack for $10,000.
Williams was subsequently indicted on federal RICO, homicide and other related charges.
Sutton, Brunson-Gans, and Soto were also convicted for the murder of Jordan Murray. Murray was shot nine times in the 2200 block of West Huntingdon Street on September 6, 2021, over what investigators determined was a dispute on Instagram.
