A three-judge panel will announce next week the fate of a man convicted of killing four people in and around Omaha in 2013.
The panel will announce on May 30 whether Nikko Jenkins will get the death penalty or life in prison. Jenkins was convicted of four counts of first-degree murder for the August 2013 shooting deaths of Juan Uribe-Pena, Jorge Cajiga-Ruiz, Curtis Bradford, and Andrea Kruger in three separate attacks.
Kruger was Jenkins’ final victim. Prosecutors say Jenkins pulled Kruger from her car, shot her four times, and then stole her vehicle.
Jenkins pleaded no contest in 2014, but his sentencing has been delayed because of concerns about his mental competency.
