 (Above photo credit: cleveland.com) From cleveland.com: CLEVELAND, Ohio - Cleveland police are searching for a man accused of shooting and killing a man live on Facebook Sunday afternoon. The shooting happened on East 93rd Street just south of the Interstate 90 in the city's Glenville neighborhood, Cleveland police spokeswoman Sgt. Jennifer Ciaccia said. The accused shooter, Steve Stephens, broadcast the shooting live on Facebook. The video of the killing remained up on Facebook for nearly three hours before it was taken down. His page has also been deactivated. Stephens, whose name on Facebook was "Stevie Steve," broadcast another video of himself about 3 p.m., claiming to have killed other people and talking on the phone admitting that he snapped and "messed up." Those killings have yet to be verified and no additional victims have been found, Ciaccia said. Stephens has also written several Facebook statuses saying his claims of the additional killings are real and saying he was shooting because of "Joy Lane." Stephens is 6-feet 1-inch tall, weighs about 240 pounds and has a full beard. He was wearing a dark-striped polo shirt at the time of the shooting and the Facebook Live broadcasts.
Stephens is driving a white or cream-colored SUV and is considered armed and dangerous, Ciaccia said. Anyone who spots Stephens should immediately call 911 and not approach him.This post will be updated when further details about the shooting becomes available. www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2017/04/man_accused_of_broadcasting_ea.htmlThoughts? This case has made national news now including CNN which is why I've placed this case in fugitives on tv (usually the criteria is the fugitive has to have been on a national crime show but this has become a nationally discussed case on tv). We just have to hope Stephens is bluffing that he's killed multiple people but his claims should be taken very seriously unless proven otherwise.

This guy is horrible for having lived streamed that whole thing. Obviously there's some good things about these features on social media but this guy used it for a very disturbing reason.
Just as we ended that whole thing with Joseph Jakubowski, this happens.

A couple of updates: -The victim has been confirmed as 74-year old Robert Godwin Sr. -There are some reports Stephens phone may have pinged in Erie, Pennsylvania but all police will say is not to believe every rumor and they actually spoke to Stephens after Godwin's homicide trying to convince him to turn himself in. So his last confirmed location was at the murder scene according to Cleveland P.D. (Although in my opinion, it's safe for anyone on the east coast to keep a close eye). -You can now call into the FBI's toll free tip line if you have information on Stephens' whereabouts: 1-800-CALL-FBIwww.ksdk.com/news/steve-stephens-manhunt-cleveland-police-to-give-new-update/431853601 |

Thanks, they showed the initial parts of the video on the news (not the murder part obviously and thankfully), and it's so heartbreaking because the victim just seems like an unassuming sweet elderly man.
If Steve Stephens is so done with life because of one girl, then he should just ended his own life rather than anyone else's.
That is the sad part of this case, even if Stephens winds up committing suicide or dying in a shootout or whatever, it couldn't have just happened before anyone was hurt.
If he is caught alive, the death penalty is currently in a bit of limbo in Ohio, but even that isn't good enough for this scumbag.
i hope Stephens is caught, gets sentenced to life, gets the ever living crap kicked out of him every single day, and then he can die.
I'll let you guys know how I really feel later.

Honestly this topic hits close to home and as well I'll discuss why later, but I agree he should've ended his own life if he felt he was at the end of the line. The victim clearly didn't deserve this, he had everything going for him, he was a grandfather and father. My prayers are with him and his family. |

He told the victim it was "because of Joy Lane" his apparent girlfriend that "i am about to do this."
I believe reports say she's in protective custody now. Feel terrible for her too since she had nothing to do with this.

Feel terrible for her too since she had nothing to do with this. Just imagine all the things she's feeling currently with this manhunt going on, obviously she's very stressed, maybe feels it's her fault and it really isn't. |

Thankfully we don't have to worry about him attempting to harm anyone else. |
