A 20-year-old man accused in a deadly shooting and carjacking spree in North Las Vegas has pleaded not guilty to state charges. On Thursday, Aerion Warmsley appeared in Clark County District Court for his arraignment. He is charged in connection with the killing of 23-year-old Na’Onche Osborne at Aliante Casino, according to News3LV.
In March, Na’Onche Osborne was fatally shot in Las Vegas. Aerion Warmsley, who is accused in the case, is also alleged to have carried out a series of carjackings across the Las Vegas valley that led to a high-speed police pursuit. Officers, reaching speeds of over 100 miles per hour, stopped the vehicle Warmsley was in using a maneuver that disabled the car, as mentioned by KTNV. His next court appearance is scheduled for August 5 for a status review of the charges.
Prosecutors are weighing the death penalty for Aerion Warmsley, the 20-year-old accused in a North Las Vegas shooting and carjacking spree. Deputy District Attorney Binu Palal said both sides agreed to extend the deadline for filing capital punishment by 180 days. Warmsley has also pleaded not guilty to six federal charges connected to the carjackings and use of a firearm during a felony. His federal case is scheduled for November 3. He is currently in Clark County custody and may be transferred to federal authorities for trial.
Na’Onche Osborne was fatally shot in March at the Aliante Casino. News outlets, including Hoodline, reported that Osborne had faced previous legal challenges before his death. As court proceedings continue, the community awaits the outcome of the case.
