Tampa teen accused in Twitter hack linked to deadly home invasion, records show
Seven months later, the shooting death remains an open case. Investigators said four Gaither High students were likely involved.
One night in January, two teens broke into an apartment in the Citrus Park area, one of them armed. A man who lived there shot them both and only one survived.
Two other teens stopped by deputies at the apartment complex were likely involved in the home invasion, the Hillsborough County Sheriffs Office reported at the time. The office said all four suspects were Gaither High School students and that criminal charges in the case were forthcoming. No names were released.
Seven months later, the case remains open. But records obtained by the Tampa Bay Times this week show that investigators believe one teen linked to the crime is Graham Ivan Clark, who drew international attention Friday when he was charged with taking control of celebrity Twitter accounts to solicit Bitcoin payments.
The home invasion case appears in a name report for the 17-year-old Clark that was generated by the Sheriffs Office at the Times request. The investigation is listed as murder-justifiable homicide.
Just how Clark was involved remains unclear. The Sheriffs Office declined to elaborate, saying the investigation remains active. When the Times asked for the case report, the office provided 13 pages, most of them redacted, from a document thats at least 652 pages.
