Tribune Reports:
Wilson was arrested Sunday after a police investigation determined he had arranged to “have his mother murdered,” police said. He was charged with murder and home invasion.
Assistant State’s Attorney Maura White said Wilson, who has his mother’s name tattooed on his right shoulder according to court records, liquidated his mother’s bank accounts, valued at over $90,000, a week after her death. He was also the beneficiary of two of her life insurance policies.
Spencer told the authorities that Wilson hired him to carry out the hit and admitted to killing stabbing and shooting Holmes. Spencer was also selected by Holmes’ boyfriend, who was in the home during the shooting, out of a police lineup. Johnson served as the driver for Spencer as he carried out the gruesome crime.
Wilson is currently being held without bail and has been charged with murder and home invasion, sharing the same charges with Johnson. Spencer has been charged with first degree murder, home invasion, and aggravated discharge of a firearm.
