Deshema Clark, 46, of Buffalo, NY, has been convicted of making a materially false statement and sentenced to serve 30 days in prison and two years of supervised release by Chief U.S. District Judge Elizabeth A. Wolford. Â
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Maeve E. Huggins and Joseph M. Tripi, who handled the case, stated that on October 9, 2019, during a federal criminal investigation, the FBI executed a search warrant at Clark’s Buffalo residence.
During the search, Clark spoke with an FBI special agent, then went to Buffalo Police Department Headquarters to provide a voluntary statement to law enforcement. Clark knowingly made several false statements regarding DeAndre Wilson’s whereabouts from the evening of September 15, 2019, through the morning of September 16, 2019.
Clark falsely stated that she and Wilson returned to her residence after attending a concert on the evening of September 15, 2019, ate dinner and went to sleep. Clark further falsely stated that a few hours later, she woke up, and Wilson was still asleep.
Clark told investigators that she did not remember Wilson leaving her residence on the evening of September 15, 2019, through the morning of September 16, 2019. However, Clark knew that Wilson did not remain at her residence, eat dinner, and go to bed.
Wilson was convicted by a federal jury and sentenced to serve three consecutive life sentences plus 30 years for the murders of Miguel Anthony Valentin-Colon, Nicole Marie Merced-Plaud, and Dhamyl Roman-Audiffred on or about September 15 to 16, 2019.
