A man has received a sentence of life in prison for dressing as a UPS worker with two accomplices and participating in the fatal shooting of a couple and their adult son in the family’s Coon Rapids home.
Alonzo P. Mingo of Fridley was sentenced Thursday in Anoka County District Court after being found guilty by a jury of three counts of first-degree murder in connection with the killings on Jan. 26, 2024, at a house in the 200 block of 94th Avenue NW.
Mingo’s life sentence comes without the possibility of parole.
Killed were Shannon P. Jungwirth, 42; her son, Jorge Reyes-Jungwirth, 20; and her husband, Mario Trejo Estrada, 39. They were found shot in the head in various rooms of the house. Surveillance footage showed two children under age 5 were in the home at the time.
A search-warrant affidavit in the killings alleged that Trejo Estrada had been trafficking cocaine, fentanyl and methamphetamine and sending large amounts of money “numerous times to various individuals in Mexico.”
Co-defendants Demetrius T. Shumpert, 32, and Omari M. Shumpert, 20, have both been arrested, charged and remain jailed in the killings.
Coon Rapids police responded to the house after hearing a female in the background of a 911 call.
