The suspect in an "execution" shooting in Chicago's Chinatown on Tuesday had escaped with light punishment from four priors, including two gun charges.
Judge Maryam Ahmad at Joyner’s bond hearing Thursday cited "overwhelming" evidence as she denied any bail for Joyner, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. Ahmad referred to the shooting as an "execution."
Joyner refused to talk to investigators, but police confirmed during a press conference Wednesday that he had at least four prior charges, including two gun charges.
The first of those charges occurred Dec. 21 last year when police pulled Joyner over for running a stop sign. When questioned, Joyner voluntarily informed the officers that he had a gun in his glove box and a license for it.
