The family of a man killed in a 2019 carjacking attempt, frustrated by the way Hennepin County prosecutors have handled the case of one of the two suspects, is now asking for state leaders to intervene.
Steve Markey was killed when two teen suspects tried to carjack him in June 2019. One defendant received 21 years in prison, the other could receive probation.
Minnesota’s high court ruled this week that the defendant, who was 15 when a Twin Cities lawyer was shot and killed during a carjacking, will be tried as an adult. He faces nearly 30 years.
