Last week, prosecutors hoped to keep Santoine Tyreek Johnson, 19, in jail without bond until his trial. Johnson is accused of being involved in a March 29 shooting that left two dead and three others injured.

Today, they got their wish, as Judge Spiro Cheriogotis denied Johnson bond under Aniah’s Law. The state law allows judges to deny bond for people accused of violent crimes.

Johnson faces two murder charges, two counts of attempted murder, two counts of shooting into an occupied dwelling, and four counts of robbery, according to reports.

Investigators have told WKRG News 5 that a truck pulled into the backyard of a home at Euclid Avenue and High Street; then, people allegedly got out of the truck and started shooting.

Michael Lane and Marvin Richardson, both 40, were killed in the shooting.

Michael Terrell Stone, 19, has also been arrested in connection with the shooting.
