Pennsylvania plans to seek the death penalty for Andre Gordon Jr., charged with killing his stepmother, sister, and mother of his children.

Pennsylvania authorities plan to seek the death penalty for Andre Gordon Jr., who is charged with killing his stepmother, sister, and mother of his children. Gordon allegedly committed the murders before fleeing to New Jersey, where he was arrested last month. The decision to seek capital punishment is due to the "multiple killings and grave risk to others," according to Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn.
