According to the DeKalb District Attorney's Office, Daniels told his cohorts to target Stephenson, who was carrying more than $55,000 in cash. They took the money after firing six shots at the 49-year-old former firefighter outside the Pin Ups entrance.

Dooley of Snellville and Henderson of Atlanta were charged in the March 15, 2011, killing of 32-year-old Gary Castillo, an armored car guard from Lawrenceville who was leaving in the shopping center with a cash pick-up when he was gunned down in the middle of the day.
