In less the a week Macus Allen, former Freshmen of the Year's blossomed into a full-fledged felon, convicted of first-degree murder and serving life in prison!
If you'll remember, Allen (aka Timothy J. Boham) shot his ex-boss and butt-slave, Paul Kelso, in the head during a cuddling/robbery gone bad. Boham'smotive? Getting cash for his preggers girlfriend. His defense? XBIZ has the goods:
"The jury took less than five hours to convict Boham, whose lawyers -- Amber St. Clair and Kristan Wheeler—claimed that his victim... committed suicide," reports the Denver Post. "They tried to persuade the jury that the murder scene was merely a cover-up for a suicide to that Kelso's life insurance policy would pay out.""According to testimony, Boham returned to the house several times to clean the body of fingerprints and to remove clothing, bedding, a shell casing and other material," the Post reports.
Boham stole Kelso's safe and cut it open, believing it contained as much as $400,000. But it was empty save for some paperwork.
He later admitted to the shooting of his mother and sister and fled to Arizona, where he was arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border and returned to Colorado. "He confessed to police during a videotaped interview, which was played to jurors. His mother, sister and former girlfriend all testified against him during the five-day trial," according to the Post.
Damn, that was quick. Is Lady Justice on Tina or something? We mean, the Harlow Cuadra trial took for-fucking-ever. But this one was wrapped up in less time than it takes to redecorate a bedroom.
