A federal grand jury on Wednesday, Sept. 23, returned a superseding indictment charging Andre Ricardo Briscoe, a/k/a Poo, age 37, of Baltimore and Cambridge, with federal drug distribution charges, use of a firearm to commit murder in relation to the drug trafficking crimes, killing a witness to prevent communication with law enforcement, and being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition.
According to the superseding indictment, from March through October 2015, Briscoe allegedly conspired with others to distribute heroin. The indictment alleges that on May 27, 2015, in connection with his drug distribution, Briscoe allegedly committed an armed robbery and during the course of the robbery in the Upland Heights area of Baltimore shot and killed Jennifer Jeffrey and Jeffrey’s seven-year-old male child. The indictment also alleges that Briscoe shot the child multiple times, including in the head and mouth, killing the child to prevent him/her from communicating with law enforcement.

Hur stated, “These murders are shocking and unconscionable. This indictment should make one thing crystal clear: If you touch a witness, especially a child, the full weight of federal law enforcement will be harnessed to find you and bring you to justice. And we will not stop investigating until we bring to justice anyone else who was involved.”
If convicted of the murders, Briscoe faces a possible maximum sentence of death or life in prison. Briscoe also faces death or a mandatory sentence of life in prison if convicted of the witness tampering murder, a mandatory minimum of five years and a maximum of 20 years in federal prison for the conspiracy to distribute and for possession with the intent to distribute 100 grams or more of heroin, and a maximum of 10 years in prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition.

“A seven-year-old child should be playing with friends and dreaming about the future, not dying in a heinous act of violence,” said Boone. “Violence and intimidation of witnesses will not be tolerated. Let this indictment send a clear message; if anyone attempts to tamper with the justice system, they will be caught and held accountable.”

These murders happen during the huge spike murders in Baltimore right after the Freddy Gray protests in May 2015, when murders doubled, even tripled, from the norm (which were already pretty damn high). I suprised they closed this case with all that has been going on, but it is the feds doing it, not BPD. I can't seem to find a pic of the suspect at this time.
