Murdering Matthew Stegman
Five young people have been arrested in Des Moines, Iowa, and charged with murder.
This article on KCCI-TV’s webpage tells some of the story:
[Des Moines Police] have arrested and charged the following people with first-degree murder: Sheri Fisher, 21, Andrew Johnson, 22, Robert Johnston, 27, Robert Myers II, 24, and Terry Williams, 22.
18-year-old Matthew Stegman’s body was found lying face-down in the Woodland Cemetery. Police said he had been beaten and stabbed to death.
Police said Fisher helped plan the murder, but Johnson, Johnston, Myers and Williams were the ones who lured Stegman to the cemetery after hours and killed him.
“They all knew each other,” Sgt. Todd Dykstra said. “To my knowlege they were friends.”
Yeah. Some friends.
The victim, Matthew Stegman, listed himself on MySpace.com as being 20 years old. His page:
