Two men charged in connection with the killing of a Clark Atlanta University student appeared in court today.

Police charged 18-year-old Jordan Baker, 19-year-old Jonathan Myles, and 21-year-old Kaylnn Ruthenberg in the death of 21-year-old James Jones, Jr. They all face felony murder, aggravated assault and armed robbery charges for allegedly shooting Jones who was killed in February during an apparent Craigslist deal, according to police.

A detective testified on Thursday that the trio had been concocting armed robberies using social media by promising items for sale. The detective said Jones came to one of the suspects’ homes, where he was shot several times. The suspects allegedly stole sneakers off the victim, took his cellphone and then left the scene.
