Robert Dean Maher Jr. of Casper, Wyoming, was tragically killed while trying to help his girlfriend and her friend who were being stalked by two teenagers at Eastridge Mall.
The 14-year-old boy was stabbed to death in a savage attack.
The Casper Police Department has arrested two teens in connection with Maher’s murder.
The main suspect, 15-year-old Jarreth Joseflee Sabstian Plunkett from Evansville, is facing charges of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, aggravated assault and battery, and theft as an adult.
Another teen, Dominique Harris from Casper, also 15, has been charged with similar offenses.
According to reports, the victim was captured on cellphone footage showing he did not want to fight and was only trying to protect the girls by escorting them away from danger at the mall.
It was revealed that the suspects stole knives from Target before confronting Maher.
This tragic incident serves as a reminder of the dangers that can arise unexpectedly and the importance of staying vigilant in public spaces.
While Maher managed to make it outside the mall, the aggressors precluded him from getting much farther.
According to the affidavit, one of the accused murderers, wearing a balaclava at the time, told Maher “to swing on him several times; however, (Maher) clearly did not want to fight as he is seen moving in a continuous backwards motion away from Jarreth.”
“However, due to numerous other juveniles gathering around, it appeared as if he was unable to get back inside the mall,” continued the affidavit.
Casper Police noted that other individuals potentially involved in the case “have been identified and questioned by law enforcement, and further action may be forthcoming.”
When Plunkett allegedly brandished the large kitchen knife, Oil City News indicated Maher said, “Put the knife away, this isn’t fair.”
Plunkett allegedly responded, “I don’t play fair.”
In a video capturing the incident, Harris is seen reportedly grabbing Maher by the waist and forcefully slamming him onto the ground close to the Hibachi Supreme Buffet at the mall.
Subsequently, Plunkett allegedly stabbed Maher twice in the chest with a kitchen knife, while Harris was reported to have punched Maher in the face.
Following the brutal assault, footage from security cameras displayed Maher clutching his bloody abdomen, stumbling out through the mall’s entrance, and then collapsing as per KGWN-TV reports.
Another individual who seems to be a third suspect was observed kicking Maher after he had been stabbed.
“They were seen laughing and pointing as they ran through the parking lot while witnesses attempted first aid,” said Nelson.
It is worth noting that Wyoming enforces the death penalty.
CPD Sgt. Michael Paschke quickly arrived at the scene and took charge of performing CPR, replacing the adults. Tragically, the boy passed away due to his injuries at the hospital.
CPD Lt. Scott Jones said, “An unfortunate thing where a young man was assaulted and died of his wounds. We feel for the family, friends, classmates of that student. Just a tragedy regardless. A tragedy because we have other juveniles involved whether suspects or bystanders,” reported the Casper Star Tribune.
“In my time in law enforcement, this doesn’t happen,” continued Jones. “We’ve been seeing an increase in frequency and severity [of youth crime] over the last several years. Just an unfortunate trend of our times.”

Enforce the death penalty with hanging and this kind of crap will stop.
Law and order have disappeared under the Biden Administration. A conservative has no rights; liberals operate as if in an anarchy. Riots, theft, murder, ad infinitum.

if they want to kill someone, why didn’t they kill some Mexican mafia illegal alien? Easy to find there are over 5.5 million now in the US.
There is 22 million of those freaks in America, I wish it WAS only 5.5 million!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
” ………..Stay tuned for the next episode of When Good Swedes go Bad”…….
The words of Officer Jones statement “We’ve been seeing an increase in frequency and severity [of youth crime] over the last several years. Just an unfortunate trend of our times” were no doubt carefully chosen due to the fact that any stronger condemnation of this inhumane act of evil would get him and the department in deep trouble with the “woke police.” And that, IS an unfortunate trend of our times that must be stopped along with the former.
Do the same thing to these 15 year olds that they did to the victim. That is only fair.
Obviously, their parents did not wreak consequences on them for disobedience when they were young. “Just an unfortunate trend of our times” is no excuse for poor parenting.
There are THREE SUBJECTS that should be Mandatory K-12:
Situational Awareness – because small children are the EASIEST TARGETS.
Threat Assessment – because if the need arises, they need to know how to select the quickest safe way out.
And FIREARMS TRAINING AND SAFETY – so the knowledge of safe handling and SELF DEFENSE USAGE comes as close to Natural Reflex as possible.
Somebodies Son may have still been alive.
150 years ago, THEY WERE TAUGHT
I nominate this Young Man (14 years old) for a Citizen’s Medal of Honor for sacrificing his life to protect his girlfriend and her friend! I also call for these two assailants being tried as adults and given the death penalty! We are not going to stop this if we don’t punish the offenders!
Sounds good to me Terry.
Once again, we see an article referring to the assailants as Teens, youths, young people, and juveniles, when the video would show us that they were Black Thugs. Just reading that their names were Jarreth Joseflee Sabstian Plunkett, and Dominique Harris, we know that a white woman would not give those names to their babies.

It’s hard to understand what has happened to this society. Murder is committed and treated like a traffic violation these days. No value for life. Thanks Joe Biden.
It is worth noting that Wyoming is full of lily-livered cowards who DIDN’T come to the aid of this kid.
Judging by the punk’s names and actions, they are 13%ers.
TRUMP take our country back. Biden should be impeached, held for treason, and meet the same fate The Rosenbergs met. HMMMM Probably not. The Domocrat deep state control it all. We are just the dumb asses that pay the taxes so they destroy our way of living.
