New York Post reporter Jennie Taer added, “Something important to note about Jhonnardy Jose Pacheco-Chirinos is that he was arrested and allowed to bail out of custody for almost beating a man to death in one of the shuttered Aurora apartments. From there, he went on to allegedly carry out a shooting at the same complex.”
