MINNEAPOLIS — A 39-year-old Scottsdale man, convicted of killing four passengers in his Mercedes Benz SUV in Minnesota and dumping the bodies in a Wisconsin cornfield, has been sentenced to 103 years in prison.
The St. Paul Pioneer Press reported that Judge JaPaul Harris sentenced Antoine Suggs of Scottsdale on May 15 to consecutive sentences for killing Jasmine Sturm, 30; her brother, Matthew Pettus, 26; her boyfriend, Loyace Foreman III, 35; and her friend, Nitosha Flug-Presley, 30.
Suggs was convicted in April of four counts of second-degree murder in the September 2021 deaths.
He testified that he shot the four in self-defense because he thought they were going to rob him.
Prosecutors said his motive was unclear, but that Suggs meant to kill the victims after a night of drinking in St. Paul.
Suggs’ father, Darren McWright, who also goes by the last name Osborne, was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty to helping his son hide the victims’ bodies at a Wisconsin cornfield about 65 miles east of St. Paul.
Suggs told the judge on Monday that he was wrongfully convicted. Harris responded that Suggs showed no remose or sympathy and “cast blame on others.”
