NEW YORK CITY - An arrest in a federal Treasury check scam may bring investigators closer to cracking the unsolved murder of 12-year-old Kade Lewin in Brooklyn, a killing that shook the city.
Reputed Crips member Jonah Luc has admitted to being in the Mercedes-Benz involved in the drive-by murder of Kade in 2022, according to a recent federal court filing. The revelation was detailed in an Aug. 22 letter asking Brooklyn Federal Magistrate Judge Vera Scanlon to hold Luc without bail — which she did.
“It seems like yesterday for me, every day,” Suzette Lewin, Kade’s mother, told the Daily News on Sunday.
“It’s 3½ years and I would love something to get done about it,” she said. “Ever since the loss, my life has to be the same.”
Luc, 24, is affiliated with the Insane Crip Gangsters, and rolls with the national gang’s Brooklyn chapter, the ICG Babiiez, according to federal prosecutors. His gang has engaged in a tit-for-tat war of retaliatory shootings with the 8 Trey Crips, and on March 31, 2022, he joined three of his fellow gang members to go on a shooting mission, the feds allege.
But their group apparently targeted the wrong parked car, and pumped 11 bullets into a black Toyota Corolla where Kade, relative Kylie Thompson, 8, and cousin Jenna Ellis, 20, were sitting, eating dinner and watching a video.
The barrage ended Kade’s life, and left Ellis wounded.
