Jury convicts 2nd man in Coon Rapids triple murder

An Anoka County jury on Wednesday found a man guilty for his role in last year’s fatal shootings of a woman, her son and husband after prosecutors say he and two accomplices posed as UPS delivery drivers and went into the family’s Coon Rapids home with guns looking for money.

Demetrius Trenton Shumpert, 32, of Minneapolis, was convicted of three counts of aiding an abetting first-degree murder and six other charges in connection with the Jan. 26, 2024, killings of Shannon Patricia Jungwirth, 42, her son Jorge Alexander Reyes-Jungwirth, 20, and her husband, Mario Alberto Trejo Estrada, 39.

Shumpert is scheduled to be sentenced Jan. 8.

Jurors in August found Alonzo Pierre Mingo guilty of the same charges for pulling the trigger in the killings of Jungwirth and Reyes-Jungwirth and aiding and abetting in the murder of Estrada. Mingo, 39, of Fridley, was sentenced to life in prison in September.

Also indicted in the killings is Shumpert’s brother, Omar Malik Shumpert, 20, of Minneapolis, who prosecutors say fatally shot Estrada after he fought back. His jury trial is scheduled for next month.

All three victims were shot in the head, and the killings were caught by video cameras inside the home in the 200 block of 94th Avenue Northwest. Two small children, both under the age of 5, were also in the home at the time of the killings but not injured.

Video showed Demetrius Shumpert and Mingo forcing Jungwirth to open credenza drawers while demanding money, the charges say.

Court records say that Estrada was suspected of drug trafficking and that law enforcement was on his trail in the days leading up to the killings. Afterward, investigators searched a Golden Valley storage unit that Estrada had rented under a false name and seized three bags of white powder, seven bags of psilocybin mushrooms, three bags of marijuana and a bag of meth, according to a search warrant affidavit.
