New York Post • • nation
Key Points:
- Olaolukitan Adon-Abel, a 26-year-old UK immigrant and convicted felon, was found dead in his jail cell after being charged with a killing spree in Georgia that resulted in three deaths, including a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employee.
- The killing spree began early April 13 with the shooting of Prianna Weathers and Tony Mathews, followed hours later by the shooting and stabbing of DHS auditor Lauren Bullis while she walked her dog.
- Adon-Abel, who became a naturalized US citizen in 2022 while serving in the Navy, had a lengthy criminal record including convictions for sexual battery, assault, and battery against a police officer; DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin condemned the crimes as “pure evil.”
- Authorities do not suspect foul play in Adon-Abel’s jail death and are conducting an internal review; the motive for the random attacks remains unclear.
