A Florida judge has sentenced one Aaron Glee to life in prison for the 2020 murders of 19-year-old Black Lives Matter activist Oluwatoyin Salau and 75-year-old Victoria Sims.
According to the Tallahassee Democrat, Glee was supposed to plead guilty in January 2023 but decided to have a trial instead.
In June, the 52-year-old Glee pleaded guilty to a first-degree murder and kidnapping charge.
He opted to spend the rest of his life in jail rather than face the death penalty.
Salau, who attended Tallahassee Community College and participated in Black Lives Matter protests, went missing a few days before Sims.

Glee admitted to tying Salau up and sexually abusing her multiple times before he eventually killed her.
Police found the women’s bodies after tracking the phone belonging to Sims, who was also kidnapped by Glee after he raided her home.

Sims’ body was found in one of Glee’s bedrooms underneath a sheet stained with blood.
Salau’s body was found underneath a pile of leaves in a wooded area behind Glee’s shabby rented house in Tallahassee.
Glee fled from the police on a Greyhound bus, but he was caught in Orlando.
Salau’s murder set off a firestorm of criticism around who is centered in calls for justice in the Black Lives Matter movement, causing the hashtag #JusticeForToyin to trend on Twitter, now called X.
