Co-worker 'motivated by jealousy' shoots 19-year-old on birthday, CA officials say
Briefly

On March 2019, Taiepisi Gutu was shot execution style on his 19th birthday and first day at work, a tragic outcome of jealousy-driven violence.
Hakim Oden, motivated by jealousy and romantic interest, killed his co-worker Taiepisi Gutu after watching him with a woman he liked.
Following the assassination of Gutu, Oden fled and was eventually arrested after a shootout with authorities, ultimately pleading guilty to first-degree murder.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins expressed hope that the guilty verdict and sentence would provide closure for Gutu’s friends and family.
