Seventh gang member charged in Henrico father's murder
Table of Contents
The last of seven gang members wanted for the home invasion and murder of a Henrico father was arrested and charged last week.
Er'rek Johnterri Love was charged late last week in connection with Earl Young Jr.'s death, completing the arrests of all seven alleged members of the 30 Boys gang believed to be involved in the August 20, 2023 home invasion and murder.
Young, 44, was described by his family as "a community guy" who worked at Lowe's in the east end and was beloved by those who knew him. He was also a father, leaving behind a 19-year-old daughter who has been particularly affected by the case. They said waiting for justice for over two years has been hell.
Four suspects have already been convicted in connection with Young's murder. Three more, including Love, are scheduled to go to trial in March.
The case has taken a particularly heavy toll on Young's 19-year-old daughter, who says family members of the suspects have mocked her while leaving court hearings. She claims they have called her father names and chanted the gang's motto, "Rob not jobs."
