According to Insideedition, detectives located the missing dash camera and were able to view footage from the mini-SD card that provided a chilling timeline of the brutal murder.
According to the reports, the video footage revealed that a man in a hoody (believed to be Anthony Crew) emerged from between 139 Brinton Ave. and 201 Brinton Ave. and entered the victim’s vehicle.
The man did not respond when Spicuzza turned and asked, “For Tanaya?” according to the affidavit.
Within a second, the man placed his hand on Spicuzza’s left shoulder and pointed a gun at the back of her head.
In that moment, Spicuzza reached up with her right hand and touched the gun and then said to the man, “You’ve got to be joking.”
“It’s a gun,” the man said.
“Come on, I have a family,” Spicuzza replied.
“I got a family, too, now drive,” the man said.
According to the complaint, the hooded man demanded that Spicuzza “complete the trip.” He then used his left hand, grabbed Spicuzza’s ponytail and controlled her head.
“I’m begging you. I have four kids,” Spicuzza said.
The man however, placed the firearm into his left hand and kept it placed at the back of Spicuzza’s neck.
“Please take that off of me,” Spicuzza said, to which the man replied, “Do what I say and everything will be alright” after reaching for her cell phone.
The man reached for the dash camera at 9:34 p.m., at which time the video footage ended, according to reports.
After the brutal killing, the man tried to access Spicuzza’s banking apps to transfer money to his girlfriend’s phone, according to reports.
Which subsequently gave right to the arrest warrant issued for Anthony Crew.
According to Pa. police, Crew’s girlfriend, identified as Tanaya Mullen said she requested the ride for Crew using her Uber account.
Mullen told police that the gun she owned had gone missing after she attended a party for one of Crew’s family members.
However, Mullen has not been charged with a crime.
Per reports, an Uber spokesperson has since come out to express their condolences to the family.
“No family should have to suffer such an unimaginable loss and our thoughts are with Christi’s loved ones during this difficult time. We’ve been in touch with law enforcement to support the investigation and are grateful for everything they’ve done,” the spokesperson said.
