Man charged in 2015 Belleville triple murder dies of COVID-19
UPDATED 12 HRS AGO | POSTED ON FEB 21, 2021
BELLEVILLE (AP) — A man awaiting trial in the slayings of three people in a Belleville hair salon in 2015 has died of COVID-19, officials said.
St. Clair County Coroner Calvin Dye Sr. said that 55-year-old Samuel L. Johnson died of complications of pneumonia and COVID-19 at Memorial Hospital in Belleville late Friday night, according to the Belleville News-Democrat.
Johnson has been in custody since 2016, when he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the March 2, 2005, stabbing deaths of hairdresser Michael Cooney and two of his customers, 79-year-old Doris Fischer and 82-year-old Dorothy Bone. The two women were sisters. Since he was charged, Johnson maintained his innocence.
