of the three remaining defendants in the death of a 9-year-old girl hit by a

case.
According to the
prosecutor’s office,
Charles Gamble, 22, pleaded guilty last week to aggravated manslaughter.
Prosecutors are to recommend a 15-year term when he's sentenced in October.
Authorities
say several men opened fire on a group of people in Bridgeton in July 2018, and
a stray bullet killed Jennifer Trejo.
One
man was convicted in 2020 of aggravated manslaughter and sentenced to 42 years
in prison. The other two defendants are slated for trial next month.
