LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A 19-year-old man has pleaded guilty to four counts of first-degree murder and will spend 50 years in the Arkansas Department of Corrections.
According to authorities, 19-year-old Freddrick Jackson committed the first murder when he was only 15 years old.
“The defendant was a teenager when senseless acts of violence destroyed multiple families,” Sixth Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney Will Jones said. “This reaffirms that more community resources are needed to intercept at-risk juveniles before lives are impacted.”
We are working to learn more about the details surrounding Jackson's charges and will update this article as more information becomes available.
