A 14-year-old boy was arrested in the slaying of Barnard College
student Tessa Majors, who was stabbed to death during an armed
robbery in December, according to officials.

“Sadly, it cannot bring back this young woman, this student,
this victim,” New York City Police Department Commissioner
Dermot Shea said at a news conference on Sunday, referring to
the arrest. “That is something that even the best, most
impartial investigation simply cannot do.”

He said NYPD officials are “confident” they have arrested the
suspect “who stabbed her,” adding that they will “face justice.”
He was identified in the news conference as Rashaun Weaver.

Blood evidence, smartphone evidence, and the suspect’s
statements are now being evaluated by Manhattan District
Attorney Cyrus Vance, who described the incident as a “gruesome
picture.”

Majors’s last words were “help me, I’m being robbed,” Vance
said. The 18-year-old student, he added, tried to fight back
against three young teens who had attempted to rob her at a park
in New York City.

Vance said that his office “will be very careful to safeguard
all the rights he has,” referring to the charges against Weaver.

“Only a fair process will result in true justice for Tessa
Majors,” he said. The 14-year-old will return to court on
Wednesday.

The Epoch Times is naming the juvenile defendant due to the
seriousness of the crime and because he has been charged as an
adult. Weaver was charged with two counts of second-degree
murder, one count of first-degree robbery, and three counts of
second-degree robbery .

Weaver’s attorney, Elsie Chandler, told the New York Post that
“he’s a 14-year-old child, and he’s presumed not guilty.”

A 13-year-old boy was previously taken into custody in Majors’s
slaying. He was charged with second-degree murder, robbery, and
criminal possession of a weapon.
