Ex-Con Whose Murder Conviction Was Overturned Kills Another Man Less Than 2 Years After His Release
A Brooklyn ex-con whose murder conviction was tossed out by prosecutors is back behind bars – this time charged in a shooting that left a 19-year-old man dead just nine months after he was released from prison. Shamel Capers, 25 was found guilty in 2016 in the shooting death of 15-year-old D’aja Robinson with a stray bullet while she rode a Q6 bus in Jamaica after a Sweet 16 birthday party. Now, after serving just eight years of a 15-year-to-life prison sentence for murder, Capers is facing new charges in a Queens shootout last year that left another teenager dead in a hail of bullets.
“The district attorney was too quick to overturn the previous charge,” one Queens cop told The Post Tuesday. “Hopefully, she will work a little harder on the latest arrest.” Another source quipped that Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz should’ve been indicted as well because “she has blood on her hands.” Capers was arraigned on attempted murder and gun charges Monday in the July 23 gunfight that killed Joshua Taylor, 19.
