When Matthew McNevin of Rayne Township pleaded guilty to third degree murder and aggravated assault last week in the death of Carlos Recalde-Campos and the wounding of Samantha Riley last March, it did not bring the case to a close. There is a second suspect facing trial in the shootings, 20-year-old Matthew Ohler Jr. of Indiana.
Ohler is charged with conspiracy to criminal homicide, conspiracy to aggravated assault, and two counts of conspiracy to reckless endangerment. He’s accused of supplying the gun McNevin used in the shootings, and of riding in a car with McNevin earlier in the evening as he made a social media post saying he was going to kill Recalde-Campos. After the shooting, Ohler was found hiding behind the Venice Pizza shop nearby. Police later said that he is a dealer in stolen guns, and supplied the 40-caliber pistol used in the shooting.
Today at one o’clock, Ohler will be taken from the Indiana County Jail to the Indiana Borough Police station for fingerprinting and processing, and then returned to his prison cell. He is scheduled for Criminal Call on April 6th.
