Owen Skyler Shover, 23, was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole over the 2019 revenge killing of his former 16-year-old classmate, Aranda Briones.
A California man who plotted for two years to kill the 16-year-old girl he blamed for getting him expelled from school will never get out of prison.
Owen Skyler Shover, 23, was sentenced to life without parole in the 2019 murder of Aranda Briones, KESQ reported. He was convicted in August.
«The victim didn’t deserve this. She was just a kid», District Attorney Mike Hestrin said. «She had her whole life ahead of her. This was a tremendous loss — all because of one person’s choice. It’s truly heartbreaking.»
Shover was Expelled After Briones Told Law Enforcement About a Gun He Had Brought to School
On Nov. 7, 2017, a group of students, including the ill-fated pair, were hanging out at a local park instead of attending classes. Shover had a small handgun in his possession that day.
When a truancy officer broke up the party, Shover threw the weapon to Briones and shouted for her to hide it but Briones panicked.
