Mukilteo woman sentenced for concealing evidence in murders

EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — A Snohomish County judge has ordered a Mukilteo woman to serve a year in prison for helping conceal evidence in a pair of torture murders in 2018. Anika St. Mary was the final defendant charged in the killings of Mohamed Adan and Ezekiel Kelly. St. Mary helped clean blood from the back of a Saturn sedan, where both young men were tortured in separate abductions hours apart. St. Mary’s then-boyfriend, Hassani Hassani pleaded guilty to murder and kidnapping. A judge sentenced him to 35 years behind bars. His friend Anthony Hernandez-Cano is serving a life sentence for two counts of aggravated murder.
