3 New Arrests, Motive Announced in October 2025 Mass Shooting at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania
Officials say multiple shooters may have been involved as investigators prepare to announce new arrests in the homecoming mass shooting.
- On Tuesday, Chester County District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe announced the arrests of three Wilmington, Delaware men—Karon Rollins, 17, Makaveli Valera, 19, and William Sells, 20—in connection with the October 2025 mass shooting at Lincoln University.
- Prosecutors allege the trio traveled to the Pennsylvania campus intending to rob homecoming attendees of jewelry and valuables, sparking gunfire that killed Ju'Juan Jeffers, 20, of Claymont, Delaware.
- Investigators used Instagram posts, text messages, and videos to link defendants to the crime, including a diamond-encrusted pendant spelling "PCBMIRR" recovered during a January arrest in Wilmington.
- Separately, Zecqueous Morgan-Thompson, 21, faces additional aggravated assault charges after ballistic evidence linked his handgun to the scene, though investigators maintain he acted independently of the three arrested suspects.
- The family of Jeffers filed a wrongful-death lawsuit alleging university negligence, while administrators implemented stricter safety protocols, including banning outdoor events after dusk, following mounting pressure from local politicians.
