Rudolph Riley, 32, received a 20-year jail term for the fatal shooting of Cory Turner, his ex-girlfriend's new partner, in Brooklyn. DA Eric Gonzalez emphasized accountability for the incident and commended NYPD's rapid action in capturing the perpetrator.
The tragic incident occurred during an argument between Riley and his ex-girlfriend, leading to the shooting of Turner when he tried to intervene. Riley was swiftly apprehended thanks to the NYPD's alertness and subsequent ballistic evidence confirmed his involvement.
Riley's plea and sentencing underscore the commitment to combating violence in Brooklyn. The 20-year prison term, along with post-release supervision, aims to deter such incidents and provide justice for the victim and his family.
The incident, which took place in May 2020 at the Gowanus Houses, resulted in the death of Cory Turner. Riley's attempted escape was thwarted by a detective from the 76th Precinct, leading to his timely arrest and the recovery of the weapon used in the crime.
