Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Wednesday, a 13-year-old male suspect appeared at a Milwaukee County juvenile detention hearing, and the Milwaukee County prosecutor told Court Commissioner Katryna Childs Rhodes that the detained suspect confessed to Milwaukee police that he and Christopher N. Scott, 15, had conspired to setup and rob both Alejandro "Alex" Sánchez, 15, and Monroe Weso, 15, in a planned drug deal, which involved $190 of marijuana being sold by Sánchez. The suspect also told police once Sánchez and Weso arrived at the meeting drug deal scene near the 1400 block of W. Halsey Ave., Scott took out a ghost handgun in an attempt to rob the young drug dealer, but Sánchez and Weso reacted in the ripoff attempt, and an altercation ignited and both victims were then fatally shot by Scott.
The deadly marijuana drug deal gone bad happened last Saturday, May 18 at 10:38 p.m.. Weso died at the scene on Saturday and Sánchez died on early Sunday, according to the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office.
The 13-year-old suspect was criminally charged and is expected to be waived into adult court in connection with the double homicide of Sánchez and Weso. He will remain in custody at the Milwaukee County Vel R. Phillips Juvenile Detention Center.
Police are looking for Scott who was charged with two felony counts for 1st-degree reckless homicide and party to a crime, and armed robbery. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Scott.
A third suspect was also identified in the double homicide investigation.
