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.

I would bet that after the Alec Baldwin fiasco there will never be another loaded gun on set ever............
Sounds like that armorer could have been used on Baldwin's set.
The actor who played the sociopathic killer, is really good too:

I think Margie is one of the best movie characters I've ever seen, perhaps the best. I think the Coen brothers are crypto-conservatives.
How does that saying go? A good friend is someone who helps you bury the bodies.
I get that you’d want to help your child in a situation like this. But “helping” them should involve getting them an attorney and then telling them to do what the attorney says, period.
Hey they didn’t want to go all Alec Baldwin on the set. :)
I had an ex spy as a neighbour who passed away almost 3 years ago now who when I brought home my latest car looked it over and said good trunk...you can fit some bodies in there.
Black on black murders?
Guessing by the names.
If smartAlec Baldwin had that movie armorer...
Never let Phil Leotardo sneak up on you like that!
That’s it!
"Well, Antione, you, uh, you wished them away into the cornfield."
There was a area of desolate cornfields near me SE of Chicago where several bodies were found over the years
mob hits, most likely
Margie only NEEDS one bullet! ;)
He’s got a good pedigree! I’d like to have seen his, ‘Hamlet.’

Not the best thought out system of body disposal. Four bodies in your own SUV in the middle of a cornfield, yeah, that’s gonna attract some attention. Should have called Mr. Wolf. He solves problems.
‘A good friend will help you move. Your BEST friend will help you move the bodies.’ ;)
