Three teenagers in Georgia have been charged with murder after a plot to egg a home as part of a “lover’s quarrel” escalated into a fatal shooting. The incident occurred when the victim, Johnathan Gilbert, confronted the teenagers who were vandalizing his home. One of the suspects, Sydney Maughon, allegedly shot Gilbert multiple times, leading to his death. The suspects fled the scene but were later apprehended by police. The motive behind the shooting is believed to be an ongoing dispute. All three teenagers are facing charges including malice murder, battery, and criminal trespassing, with additional charges for Maughon and another suspect. The authorities consider all three suspects responsible for the crime due to their involvement in planning and carrying out the act.
