Triplets All In Jail For Multiple Convictions
A set of triplets are in jail at the same time for various crimes.
Two of the 21-year-old brothers, Deshawn and Juronn Shivers, have recently been jailed after being convicted of unarmed robbery following in incident that occurred in Buena Vista Township, Mich, ABC News reports.
It is unknown how much time the men will spend in prison; however, they join their triplet brother, Devon, who is currently serving a minimum 30-year sentence for a 2011 conviction for multiple weapons charges and home invasion.
According to Saginaw Police Sgt. Terry Carpenter, the men belong to a gang that operates within the city's southeast region.
"They have been members of the 'Sunny Side' gang for years, and that includes siblings and family members," Carpenter said over the phone.
Among those family members is an older brother to the triplets; Sanford Shivers, 30, whom was in prison until August for a 2001 conviction of "obstructing and resisting police, assault with intent to do great bodily harm, and felony weapons charges," according to ABC News.
"The Saginaw P.D. is elated by the recent convictions of Deshawn and Juronn Shivers and hope that they receive a stern sentence by the sentencing circuit court judge," the police said in a statement.
"Additionally, we thank the Buena Vista Police Department in their hard work producing the evidence needed to ensure a conviction in their most recent crime."
