Murderer of Young NY Mother Walking her Child Arrested

            The killer of the young New York mother, 20-year-old Azsia Johnson, who was shot last Wednesday night in the Upper East side of Manhattan, has been arrested without bail. Isaac Argo, the shooter, is charged with second-degree murder and two counts of second-degree criminal possession of a weapon.

            Argo (22) was the father of Johnson’s three-month-old daughter, who was present at the time of the shooting. According to CNN, Argo contacted Johnson to meet to discuss care for the child and to give her some items, but instead arrived in all black with a ski mask, showing premeditation. Other reports of the two’s relationship are filled with accusations of stalking and abuse by Argo against Johnson.

            According to PEOPLE, Johnson felt some unease going into the meeting with her ex-boyfriend, choosing to share her location with her sister and telling family members about the plan to meet up. Working on becoming a pediatric nurse, Johnson leaves behind her daughter, who was unharmed in the attack, and a young son as well. Her family is mourning while also focused on seeing she receives justice.
