SOMERVILLE — He sang like a canary — and that was before he was arrested.
A Somerset County man has been sentenced to 27 years in prison after being convicted of killing an 18-year-old woman by shooting her in the back of the neck.
Prosecutors said Tamar "T-Mac" Reaves, 20, of Franklin, was caught after posting a social media video of him singing a song that included lyrics that eerily tracked the course of events in the homicide.
Investigators said Reaves followed Chamari Webb from a convenience store to her relative's home on Battle Place before 8 a.m. Aug. 9, 2017.
Reaves then shot her with a handgun, fled to a friend's house and then hid at his grandmother's home, where he be began posting on social media, prosecutors said. They did not elaborate or identify the song in public statements about the arrest or sentencing.
In addition to the song, Reaves also shared a photo of the pizza that he ordered after the shooting, officials said.
He also left other clues.
Investigators said Reaves was caught on surveillance camera and that ballistic testing tied the shooting to his 9mm gun.

Was he singing Guns N Roses, “I Used to Love Her (But I had to kill her)”
That is the only song I like from guns n roses.
Smooth move, “T-Mac.”
Hey Joe.

“A Somerset County man has been sentenced to 27 years in prison after being convicted of killing an 18-year-old woman by shooting her in the back of the neck.”
How about a bullet to the back of his neck and save taxpayers a ton of money.
Poor girl. She had bad taste in men. Glad they got him.
Where the water runs cold..
How about November Rain?
Seriously, its the only song I listen to from them.
Delilah.
I was thinking “Hey, Joe”.
November Rain is over wrought, whiny and overrated.
Axl’s phlegmatic and nasal interpretation of the cringeworthy lyrics are yet another reason to think the song unworthy of listening to.
Not a GnR fan even when Tommy Gunn was there, despise Axl Rose.
But he was just getting his life together! He was going to go to college!
27 years for stalking and killing a woman? That’s first degree murder. Then the lack of remorse, boasting and singing about it.
Assuming no parole, and no crimes in prison, and no dying in prison, this creature with no sense, no brakes, no apprehension of consequences, no respect for life at all, will be on the streets when he is 47.
Yay, Jersey.
I wonder if he’s related to T-Bone, Corey Booker’s imaginary friend?
Reaves then shot her with a handgun, fled to a friend’s house and then hid at his grandmother’s home, where he be began posting on social media
Can’t make this stuff up. He must have an IQ similar to his age. He should be a top “climate scientist”.
