Bogan’s co-defendant, Sean Deleon, pleaded guilty to Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree. Also a Peekskill resident, Deleon was sentenced last November to five years in state prison.

The fatal shooting took place near 1245 Park St. in the afternoon of July 13, 2018. The men had argued earlier. Peekskill police arrested Bogan later that month.

Assistant District Attorneys Nadine Nagler, Chief of the Narcotics and Firearms Bureau, Jonathan Strongin, Deputy Chief of the Career Criminal Bureau, and Joseph Servino prosecuted the case.
