Yesterday, a judge sentenced Rodolfo Godinez to life in prison for the 2007 murders of three Newark college students and the attempted murder of a fourth. Superior Court Judge Michael Ravin called 27-year-old Nicaraguan immigrant, "a menace" and "manifestation of evil." Natasha Aerial, who was sexually assaulted and shot in the head during the supposed gang initiation as she watched her two friends and older brother shot execution-style, said of Godinez, "I’m angry. That punk over there, I’d whup him. If it was me and you, you would not win." Five other defendants will now be tried for the murders.
