ROBERT DAVIS SENTENCED TO 15 TO 30 YEARS IN MURDER OF PHILLY JOURNALIST JOSH
KRUGER

Robert Davis, the now 20-year-old charged with killing Philadelphia journalist
Josh Kruger at his home in Point Breeze in October 2023 has learned his fate
after he was sentenced in court Monday.

PHILADELPHIA - Robert Davis, the now 20-year-old charged with killing
Philadelphia journalist Josh Kruger at his home in Point Breeze in October 2023
has learned his fate after he was sentenced in court Monday. 

Davis pleaded guilty to third degree murder and was sentenced to 15 to 30 years
in prison, according to court documents.





In addition to third degree murder, court documents show his charges for the
incident also included aggravated assault, firearms not to be carried without a
license and the possession of an instrument with the intent of the crime. 

Davis’ mother recently spoke to FOX 29 and called on the evidence in this case
to be made public, not just for her son’s sake.

MOM OF MAN ACCUSED OF FATALLY SHOOTING PHILLY JOURNALIST JOSH KRUGER SPEAKS OUT:
'IT'S ABOUT THE TRUTH'

Eight months after 20-year-old Robert Davis was accused of shooting and killing
Philadelphia journalist Josh Kruger in his Point Breeze home, Davis' mom is
calling for the evidence in the case to be made public.

 On October 3, 2023, responding officers found Kruger, 39, on the sidewalk
outside his home on the 2300 block of Watkins Street suffering from deadly
gunshot wounds to the chest and abdomen.  

Davis was arrested and charged with the murder later that month, and prosecutors
also linked him to a non-fatal shooting during a scuffle at a SEPTA station.

Court documents obtained by FOX 29 stated that evidence recovered from Kruger’s
cell phone revealed that Kruger and Davis were in an intimate sexual
relationship.

Davis’ mother claims the relationship started when he was 15-years-old and
involved drugs that she says he is still addicted to. She says she is concerned
about other vulnerable children.

Now that Davis’ fate has been revealed, those details may never be revealed.

Kruger spent five years in city government working as a City Hall Content
Director, Communications Director and spokesperson before returning to
journalism in 2021.

His writing was featured in a variety of local publications, including the
Philadelphia Inquirer. His website also mentions his work for a number of causes
and campaigns focusing on public education, poverty, homelessness, and criminal
justice reform.
