Several days later, John Singleton died of his injuries.
Singleton's murder didn't get much media attention beyond initial incident reports and our blog featuring memories about him shared by his wife, Maria Singleton-McGaughy.
But the case wasn't forgotten, as evidenced by first-degree-murder charges just filed against Ricardo Soto, twenty.
Look below to get more information about the case against Soto; note that Singleton is identified in the release as John McGaughy-Singleton.
