On Trial

Detective relates Dandridge’s statement

Ray Dandridge described the decision to kill Ashley Baskerville this way:

“He got tired of the girl, so he decided to kill her,“ Dandridge said of his alleged accomplice, Ricky Javon Gray, in a statement to Philadelphia police shortly after his capture on Jan. 7

“...So he could take her parents car and get out of here.“

But it was Dandridge who ended up putting duct tape over Baskerville’s mouth and nose that prosecutors said resulted in her suffocation death—an act repeated with Baskerville’s mother, Mary Tucker, and Tucker’s husband Percyell Tucker in their East Broad Rock Road home.
