Mom of slain NYC teen ‘knew’ daughter’s accused killer would be in jail again: ‘He did this to somebody else’
NY Post
The mom of slain New York City teenager D’aja Robinson “knew” her daughter’s accused killer would wind up back behind bars after his conviction was tossed nine months ago.
She was right.
“He did it again,” Shadia Sands told The Post on Wednesday following ex-con Shamel Capers’ arrest for his alleged role in a Queens shootout that left a 19-year-old man dead last year.
“It’s giving me chills all over again,” Sands said in a phone interview. “He did this to somebody else.”
Sands recalled how, after Queens prosecutors pushed to clear Capers of her 14-year-old daughter’s murder, leaving him back on the streets, “We said these exact words: ‘He’s gonna be out there doing this to somebody else’s child.’
“And he did it again,” she said.
