On Saturday the 21-year-old, of Arizonza, took to Twitter saying: “I need to move out of my place before I viciously murder my roommates”. Still, it’s a pretty compelling argument for reading your roommate’s tweets. The act of violence comes just two days after the shooter published an aggressive tweet about how he might do it.
Zachary Penton was booked into the Fourth Avenue Jail on murder charges.
Police have still not verified whether or not the tweet was sent from Penton. Another tweet from June mentions how unbelievably easy it is to buy a gun.
Penton’s attorney says his client’s social media posts weren’t meant to be taken literally and believes the evidence will show he was acting in self-defense.
“Zac Penton has been a good friend of mine for years”. We might have even put it on social media.
At present, Zachary Penton is being held on $750,000 bail on a second-degree murder charge, according to Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office records.
