55 year Edward Albert Robinson was killed on Saturday, October 17, 2015, collateral damage in an internal gang beef, which targeted 31 year old Jermaine Betancourt.  Betancourt survived, but the older man who was in the wrong place, wrong time died from the gunshot to his back. 

Police arrested two men from Betancourt’s own Supal Street crew and charged them for murder.  They have been remanded for the last five months, plus.  The newstonight is that one of them, 22 year old Devon Sankey has been cleared of charges and freed from remand, while the other, Ryan “Lippoâ€￾ Alvarez is still facing that murder charge.  Today, after getting the news, Sankey sprinted out of courtroom and, across Battle Field Park and jumped into a taxi on Albert street. 

The directive came from the DPP’s office after she concluded that
there was no evidence linking Sankey to the crime of murder or conspiracy to murder. Survivor, Jamil Betancourt told police that Sankey was at the scene, he said Ryan Alvarez was the man holding the gun and shooting at him.
