Former Child Actor Found Guilty for 3 Murders

kevin deleon guilty of three murdersSkylar Deleon, 29, was found guilty by an Orange County jury yesterday for killing three people, including a couple who showed him a yacht in 2004. "Prosecutors said Deleon feigned interest in buying the boat and took a test cruise where he and two other men overpowered the Hawkses, forced the couple to sign over ownership of the boat, tied them to the anchor and dumped them into the Pacific Ocean," says CNN. DeLeon claimed he was one of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, but according to IMDB, he only played a small role in a single episode as a guy named Roger. Creepy.

who was the third person killed

I don't know why he was sentenced for all three at once, but here you go, via the Associated Press:

"Deleon was also found guilty of murdering Jon Jarvi, of Anaheim, in 2003. Prosecutors had said Deleon met Jarvi in a work furlough program while serving jail time for burglary, and killed him in Mexico after Jarvi gave him $50,000."
