Man accused of helping son hide 4 bodies in Wisconsin cornfield sentenced to 16 years in prison (Minnesota)

A Minnesota man accused of helping his son hide four bodies in a Wisconsin cornfield has been sentenced to 16 years in prison, online court records show.

Dunn County Circuit Judge James Peterson sentenced 59-year-old Darren Osborne of St. Paul on Thursday. A jury found him guilty of four counts of hiding a corpse in October. Peterson gave him four years in prison for each victim.

According to prosecutors, Osborne's son, Antoine Suggs, of Scottsdale, Arizona, shot the four after a night of drinking in St. Paul in September 2021. Killed were 30-year-old Jasmine Sturm; her brother, 26-year-old Matthew Pettus; her boyfriend, 35-year-old Loyace Foreman III; and her friend, 30-year-old Nitosha Flug-Presley.

Suggs told his father that he “snapped” and shot a couple of people, according to a criminal complaint charging him with four counts of second-degree murder. Osborne followed Suggs to a Dunn County cornfield, about 65 miles (105 kilometers) east of St. Paul. They left the bodies in Suggs' Mercedes Benz SUV, abandoned the vehicle in the cornfield and left in Osborne's vehicle. A farmer who owned the cornfield discovered the bodies.

Suggs testified he shot the four in self-defense because he thought they were going to rob him but prosecutors countered that his motive was unclear but he meant to kill them. He was ultimately convicted and sentenced to 103 years in prison in 2023.

Given the advancement of police forensics, DNA science, cell phone/computer/auto tracking/financial tracking, video surveillance, social media, etc. etc..

It would be impossible to murder 4 people, and keep the crime hidden.

Thanks for the add.

I had heard of them finding the bodies in the car in the cornfield, but didn’t know what had happened.

Nice of Minnesota to use Wisconsin as her dumping grounds. Happens more often than we would like. There’s an Interstate Highway that the Chicago criminals use to move drugs and guns from there to the Twin Cities. None of our local politicians seem to give a rat’s rump about it. :(

Not “hidden” very well, were they?

He left his own vehicle with bodies inside, out in the open of a cornfield.

Not difficult to make connections.

The linked article disagrees with that photo caption.

“Suggs testified he shot the four in self-defense because
he thought they were going to rob him but prosecutors countered
that his motive was unclear but he meant to kill them.
He was ultimately convicted and sentenced to 103 years
in prison in 2023”

Didn’t sound much like ‘help’, actually.

The bodies certainly DO stack up in ‘Fargo,’ LOL!

Frances McDormand is a great actress; I’ve loved her in all of her various roles, but ‘Margie’ holds a place near and dear...most likely because we talk with the same accent. ;)

“So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There’s more to life than a little money, you know. Don’t you know that? And here ya are, and it’s a beautiful day. Well, I just don’t understand it.” – Marge Gunderson

Scottsdale was one of the safest towns in AZ.
About 6 years ago, suddenly we started getting break ins, and hard core crime.
It wasn’t hard to find who was behind it.
The Mayor of Scottsdale was behind all the criminals suddenly showing up in Scottsdale.
