Almost exactly one year ago, Adrian Soto allegedly killed his girlfriend’s ex in front of multiple witnesses in a grocery parking lot in Chicago. But, even though officials say the murder was captured on video and was seen by people who know Soto personally, he was not charged with the crime until this week.

In the interim, prosecutors say, Soto shot up his ex-girlfriend’s house, killing a man sleeping inside.

He is now charged with two counts of first-degree murder and a host of other felonies. Picking up the kids

On the afternoon of November 7, 2021, Soto rode along with his girlfriend as she went to pick up her children from her ex-boyfriend, Nicholas Narolewski, in the Mariano’s parking lot, 3145 South Ashland. Narolewski arrived with his mother, and Soto’s girlfriend walked across the lot to speak with them, leaving Soto in the car, prosecutor Erin Cooper said.

She soon returned to the car with the children and Narolewski.

"Soto, who has no criminal background, was held without bail by Judge Susana Ortiz in January. Judge Mary Marubio also held him without bail on the November 2021 murder charge this week."

A bizarre closing statement. How many other crimes has this man committed that nobody bothered to charge him with?

Well if you’re never charged with anything of course you’re not going to have a criminal background

CWBChicago has some gruesome stories that are not covered anywhere else in Chicago media.

This “girlfriend” picked a real winner.

In the messages, Soto told her that she saw her cuddling on the couch with her new boyfriend, a member of a rival gang, and said that if he couldn’t have her, no one could, according to Murphy. [ . . . ] Soto, who has no criminal background, was held without bail by Judge Susana Ortiz in January.

How can you be a member of a "gang" for presumably years, and not have a criminal background? (You know, besides the murders, reckless homicides and shooting up houses, etc.)

Well if you’re never charged with anything of course you’re not going to have a criminal background

Hence the 11th Commandment: Thou shall not get caught.

18 years old and has killed at least 3 people already!!! He’s obviously a candidate for electronic monitoring in Chicago as rehabilitation is just around the corner.
