A New Jersey man has been sentenced to 160 years in prison for using dating apps to lure three women to their deaths in 2016. 

Khalil Wheeler-Weaver will spend the rest of his life behind bars for the murders of Joanee Brown, Sarah Butler and Robin West after friends of Butler used social media to help catch the killer. 

A fourth woman, Tiffany Taylor, survived an attack and provided identifiable information to law enforcement to help crack the case. 

During the 2021 trial, prosecutors painted a picture of how Wheeler-Weaver used dating apps to meet the women for sex before strangling them and dumping their bodies throughout northern New Jersey. The attacks were just weeks apart, giving Wheeler-Weaver the opportunity to plan before striking again, according to prosecutors. 

Authorities credited Butler’s college friends for their work to leverage Butler’s social media accounts, make fake profiles and lure Wheeler-Weaver to a proposed meeting spot, where police were waiting.
