Four Teens Accept Plea Deal in Lewis Case
News summary

Four teenagers initially charged with murder in the death of Rancho High School student Jonathan Lewis have accepted a plea deal for voluntary manslaughter, which will move their cases back to juvenile court. The teens—Damien Hernandez, Dontral Beaver, Gianni Robinson, and Treavion Randolph—were involved in a deadly beating that left Lewis fatally injured on November 1, 2023. A condition of the plea deal requires all four to agree; otherwise, the case returns to adult court under the original charges. The attack on Lewis, caught on video, involved up to ten teenagers and was allegedly provoked by a dispute over a stolen vape pen and wireless headphones. The plea deal aims to have the records of the four teens sealed, and sentencing will be determined later. Lewis' mother expressed shock and disbelief upon learning about the plea agreement.
