Prosecutors yesterday laid out their case against Burton, who is charged with savagely attacking Stropas after tracking him down via a GPS device he had placed on Stropas’ car.
It came to a head in the parking lot of a packed Olde Ridge Village shopping center on Baltimore Pike in Springfield.
It’s an unlikely place for a murder. It’s always jammed.
Several witnesses testified to just how brutal the attack was yesterday at Burton’s preliminary hearing.
Police have indicated a love triangle was at the center of the deadly affair, with Stropas apparently seeing Burton’s ex.
Hard to believe a man could survive the battlefield in Iraq, only to meet his fate in the crowded parking lot of a Delaware County shopping center.
