“The brutal killing of Kalin Robinson in a parking lot in Woodbridge was deliberately orchestrated by the Defendant, Traivon Johnson,” Prince William County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office announced. “Without his cold and calculating actions, the murder would not have taken place. Although no sentence can bring Mr. Robinson back, the imposition of the maximum allowable sentence of 54 years in prison demonstrates that Traivon Johnson’s behavior will not be tolerated in our community.”

Mr. Johnson, 29, pled guilty on July 7, 2025, to multiple charges, including Second Degree Murder, Conspiracy, and Use of a Firearm in the Commission of a Felony. He was sentenced on November 20, 2025, by Judge James A. Willett to 54 years of incarceration followed by three years of post-release supervision. Police determined he had planned the attack and matched cartridge casings from the crime scene to a firearm recovered from his residence.

A Fredericksburg man will serve more than 13 years in state prison after pleading guilty to attempted rape, assault and battery, and violating felony probation. The charges stem from a September 10, 2024, incident near Double Drive and College Avenue, located on the University of Mary Washington campus.

Raymond Mungro III was sentenced on November 19, 2025, in Fredericksburg Circuit Court to 13 years and 4 months of active time. The court suspended an additional 10 years and 4 months, and imposed conditions including no contact with the victim, supervised probation after release, and compliance with sex offender registration laws.

“Omini Tete Riman, 60, earned income as an information technology specialist and landlord,” U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia announced. “Riman filed false Internal Revenue Service Forms 1040 for tax years 2013 and 2014, resulting in tax refunds of $213,577 for 2013 and $186,468 for 2014, to which he was not entitled.”

“Riman took numerous steps to frustrate the IRS’s collection efforts,” the office said, including transferring property to a trust, directing income to accounts in the trust’s name, telling a tenant to ignore IRS notices and calling them a “scam,” and submitting false documents claiming an IRS officer had received more than $600,000 from him.


Stafford

A Fredericksburg man, 45, was sentenced to 40 years in prison in Stafford Circuit Court. The sentence includes a mandatory minimum of six years to serve, with 20 years suspended. The charges stemmed from an investigation into the overdose death of a Stafford County resident.

The investigation revealed that the man had distributed narcotics to the victim shortly before the fatal overdose. During a traffic stop, the Stafford County SWAT team recovered approximately 90 Fentanyl pills and a quantity of Xylazine from the suspect.

“Mr. Hill has previously been convicted of acts of domestic violence stemming from an incident that occurred in 2019 involving a different female victim,” The Office of the Commonwealth’s Attorney announced. “Mr. Agee subjected his victim to years of threats and physical harm until she finally had the courage to report to what was happening to law enforcement.”

“Domestic violence is one of the leading causes of homicide across the nation. A recent study has shown that victims of strangulation are more than 750 times more likely to become victims of either attempted or completed homicides. My office takes domestic violence cases very seriously and will vigorously pursue justice for victims,” Commonwealth’s Attorney Amy Ashworth stated.

MANASSAS, Va. — The court fight over the Prince William Digital Gateway reached a turning point Wednesday as Judge Kimberly Irving declined to stay her ruling that voided rezonings for the massive data center corridor.

Irving struck down the rezonings on August 7, finding that the county’s public notices ahead of December 2023 hearings did not comply with state and local law. County lawyers and developers had urged her to put the decision on hold while they appealed, warning that the ruling could stall plans for 37 data centers on 2,100 acres along Pageland Lane.
