(Black Muslim) Man Indicted On Terrorism Charges In Murder Of (White) College Student In West Orange
  NEWARK, N.J. — A Seattle man was indicted on terrorism and murder charges Thursday in a shooting that killed a college student in West Orange, New Jersey last year. Ali Muhammad Brown, 30, was indicted by a grand jury on two counts of terrorism, one count of murder and other charges in the June 25, 2014 shooting that killed Brendan Tevlin, 19, of Livingston, according to the Essex County Prosecutor’s office. It was the first murder case in New Jersey in which a defendant was charged with terrorism under state law, prosecutors said. Brown had allegedly said he was motivated by a “bloody crusade” to punish the U.S. government for its foreign policies. Tevlin was shot and killed as he stopped at a traffic light on his way home. Brown then drove Tevlin’s vehicle to an apartment complex where he stole undisclosed items from the victim. Brown described himself to detectives after his New Jersey arrest as a strict Muslim who had become angry with what he described as the U.S. government’s role in Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan. Two alleged accomplices, Eric Williams, 19, and Jeremy Villagran, 20 — both West Orange – had also been charged in Tevlin’s murder. Brown had earlier been charged with aggravated murder in the June 1 shooting deaths of two young men in Seattle, Ahmed Said and Dwone Anderson-Young, and in the April 27 shooting of 30-year-old Leroy Henderson in Skyway, south of Seattle. - (Black-on-white) |
