ATLANTA – Attorney General Chris Carr announced Monday that Rodderick Glanton, Homer Upshaw and Terrance Upshaw have been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of 17-year-old Jesse Ransom and 18-year-old Saiveon Pugh and the assault of two other teens.
The defendants are members of the Marlo Gang, a hybrid criminal street gang in Columbus. In June 2021, they opened fire on a vehicle as it drove past a home located across the street from the Wilson Apartment complex. All four teens were inside the car and sustained gunshot wounds. Ransom and Pugh died as a result of their injuries.
