The Colorado Murder

The murder that eventually led to Bennett being sentenced to 30 years in prison took place on June 27, 2020, at his home on Marshall Street in Arvada, Colorado. It has been reported that the victim arrived at Bennett's house and an argument broke out while Jutting was outside the home and Bennett was indoors arguing with the victim through a window.

It was due to this argument that Bennett allegedly shot Jutting a total of nine times in the back, killing his cousin. Despite this crucial evidence, Bennett argued that the shooting was in self-defense.
