Man who set sister's ex-boyfriend on fire in Bronx sentenced 

He refused to enter the courtroom for his judgement but passed judgment on the kid he murdered and burned alive!!!

Dude has some serious anger issues setting someone on fire!

That’s some cruel shit.

He should have been forced to attend the sentencing.

The girl was under the legal age for a relationship with an 18year old but people in the comments seeming to excuse murder is crazy! That's unhinged! Maybe you beat his butt then call the cops but what he did was monstrous, and he needs to be locked up for life!

I don’t agree with an 18 yr old dating a 15 yr old girl. But I do not and will never agree with that Barbaric behavior. He has anger issues and was never taught how to deal with his emotions. The girls parents should of stepped in and spoken to him and to his parents. He is the brother that probably thinks he is the sisters dad. I am all for protecting my family, but that is unacceptable.

They should've forced this guy to appear in the courtroom to hear his sentence and the victim's impact statement!! This is outrageous that these killers don't want to face up to justice! Even though the victim was 18 when dating the sister, this was not the way to handle this situation, I didn't hear anything come out about him abusing her or anything, I don't understand what could've made this guy do this!!

Yes it was illegal for the 18 yr. Old to mess with the 15 yr. Old. but setting him on on fire and killing him, that's why we have the police and prosecutors for. That's way too cruel.

If he was convicted in the year 2020, why did it take 4 years for the sentencing?

This is gruesome and extremely sad. Yet something tells me there's so much more to this story. Many missing and moving pieces still left on the board.

So much grim news these days! It’s depressing and sickening.

Wtf is you doing with a 15 year old?

18 dating a 15yr old when the age of consent in New York is 17 🤔

He got into his feelings instead of being rational about the situation and threw his life away !

He is a monster

There has to be more to the story. Did the sister complain that she was being abused by this guy?

The fact the murderer didn’t go to court to face the family shows what a coward he is

Ridiculous story arsonist dude gonna be doing serious time in prison that's for sure.

They are really sick there. Not the first time someone does this because their sister is dating someone. Thats not protecting them. They will still date someone else. Sickening how evil people can be.

What that brother did is unspeakable. However, why did the parents of the 18 year old allow him to be in a romantic relationship with a 15 year old that’s a minor?

When sibling mate-guarding simpitry goes wrong.

Prayers for the family

Very sad

Why The fuck did he do that??

That’s not Bronx supreme court. That is the criminal court building.

Prayers and Condolences to the Family.

You. Don't. Kill. People. How is that not self explanatory.

Teenagers should not be dating. Parents needs to try their best to discourage their kids from getting in a relationship at such a young age. They need to focus on their education.

Not like the guy is 25 18 is berly legal

What was an 18 year old guy doing with a 15 year old?

The horror of it all. No one should ever go through what that young man did. The horror of it all makes it so saddening.

This case is insane. This sounds like something from a 4th world country. Disgusting. Rip kid

The defense attorney asked for the minimum. 😳😳. If I were the Judge I would have openly said In court to the Victims Mother. What ever punishment you deem fit is what that monster will get!!! Period!!!

I guess Adonis was in love with his sister

He’s a coward. He did it cos he knew the guy won’t fight back. If the dude was bigger, he wouldn’t have done it

Well if he is 18-yo and she is just 15, I don't think dating a 15-yo is legal! so I can understand his frustration

I don't understand he must really hate him to kill that person. Well like most sister's with brothers that are overly protective will not let them date anyone but never seen someone go in rage to kill unbelievable.

The fact y’all okay with a 18yr dating a high schooler is insane 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

My heart goes out to the family. Much love to you. 💔💔🌹😢😢💔

Friend in college: “Hey man. What are doing parked outside of the freshman center?” 18 year old Rapo: “Oh not much. Just picking up my 15 YEAR OLD girlfriend.”

In no way I’m I condoning murder but they way that they down played the fact that he was 18 and she was 15 is mind blowing. In different cultures brothers are protectors of their sisters because of how they were raised. They should have taken that into consideration. They’re all young. Sad story.

So everyone just ignoring the fact that dude was 18!!!!???? And the sister was 15!

What a vicious crime! 😱

Adonis is a coward and arrogant. He didn't have the courage to face his victims family and deal with the consequences of his actions in person. Shame on the judge for not making him appear in court.

18 year old with a 15 year old understandable but to burn and stab him smh

Well the victim should have not been messing with a 15 yr old and he was 18 . Some people see that as molestation, an legal adult with a minor. Yes the attacker went overboard but we dont know how he felt about his sister with a grown man. He doesn't deserve life.

Wow that's is crazy...my heart ♥ is broken too I'm so sorry for the family

Wow Oh dear !! Sending my condolences 💐

Horrible. Sad story. Hopefully, the family can rest easier knowing the killer is behind bars 😐

The girls parents should of stepped in and all this would of been avoided.

Wow when his dad and brother got on the stand I was so crushed so devastating prayers and love to the family

18 messing with a 15 yrs old??? Free big brah.

My condolences to the family 🙏

Sad😢

The laws need to change re: folks appearing at their own legal proceedings - especially verdicts and sentencings.

A human life extinguished for what??? NOTHING!! Condolences to the victims family.

Damn! That's horrible.

If you were an adult being with my 15 year old sister, I would want to protect her too since the courts don’t

Demons on earth

Rip the young man 18 with a 15-year-old is crazy as a father. I don’t know what I would do.

How do you "refuse to go to court"? What a friggin country

I been watching the news yesterday and i was so shocked and the parents were so upset when this happened and that's why a lot people are leaving NYC because they don't feel safe living in the Bronx New York anymore

So an older brother protected his little sister from a grown man? What about "Protect Black Women"??

This was horrible but men shouldn't be messing around with underage girls. 🤷🏿‍♂️

He really didnt like his sister's ex.

Condolences goes out to the family and friends 😢❤

3 year age difference, murder is not justified.

what a coward couldn't face the people and court.

That’s an evil way to kill someone

Wow 😢😢😢

I don’t know all the facts but why wasn’t this considered a PASSION OF CRIME ? Life without parole requires an appeal . The victim wasn’t innocent and the message is not clear on BOTH SIDES. Yes this is murder but that was his baby sister . Why is an adult interested in a child anyway ? Life in prison is too much . 20-25 years is better because his motive wasn’t random it was in an act of honor

If the age is real the crime is real

Clearly that guy had feelings for his sister or something. He is clearly disturbed and I’m glad he is locked up. I am so sorry for the people’s losses of the boy murdered 😢

My condolences

What? Seems to be a lot more to this story. The kid they show isn't the real updated person. A old pic when he got dressed up doesn't prove he was innocent.

Forget building affordable housing we're going to need a LOT more prisons!!! People are just going nuts.

Life!!!!

THIS IS UPSETTING 😢💔

Smh... an 18yo man should NOT be dating/ intimate with a 15yo child. Always be mindful that your actions can have consequences, and you never know just how severe the consequences will be. I wouldn't go to this extreme, but that's why you have to be careful out here.... sad situation.

Free em 💯

He's can't protect her anymore. Its ashame. 🤬

There’s nothing honorable about the brothers actions. He took justice into his own hands and that’s never okay. My condolences to his family 🙏. While I’m not denying that he shouldn’t have been dating a minor, he didn’t deserve to die like that.

18 and 15yrold!?

Wtf 😳

I just wanted to say that If you have suicidal thoughts, mental trauma, PTSD, or even if you don’t or just going through a thought time or neither just know that I love you and your loved by many and people and if you think that might not be loved by your family or people you know or just anyone just know they might even love you even more than your think. You have a purpose you are beautiful, kind, just be yourself and go after what you want to do. You are amazing, you got this, and things will get better in your life, you will do great things, and so many people and I are proud of you. Your future is bigger than your past and your past does not define you are awesome and a warrior. Don’t hate yourself simply because of your past, forgive yourself, love yourself no matter what because you deserve the world and the great things in it. I love you Have a wonderful beautiful nice day. Also how are you and your family doing today? Hope you feel better and your family.❤️ Be yourself no matter what you are, have, or what to be you are still amazing and you kind and beautiful always you are the light of the world.

😢🙏🏽🙏🏽

He was protecting his sister

Wait all this because his sisters bf

Lmao the news titles r getting nuttier n nuttier 🤣

Damn New York wilding right now

Justice Was Served ⚖️

Grief counselor 🤣🤣😂

😢😢😢😢 what else can be said

The murderers should be FORCED to go into court.

Because the sister had a boyfriend, what’s really going on with the sister that he would flip out like that.

Sounds like he may have wanted the sister for himself..

I just cannot believe that people murder. I think about it a lot lately. I do not have the capacity to take a life. How does it happen so easily everywhere ? Its terrifying. Poor young man 😢 God help us all.

Rest In Peace 😢😢😢😢😢💔💔💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏

These dides dont want yall dating their sisters

The reason he didn’t have a criminal record, is because he’d never been caught. That’s why he felt he would not get caught. Only heaven knows what else he’s done in the past. I get so sick of the media asking this ignorant question. Especially, when there’s been a heinous crime committed. Hell, he’s got one now, and he’s made up for lost time.😢
