Daily News | Accused killer of teacher Rachel King is linked to a North Philly murder that happened days earlier, police say
Just days before a hitman shot and killed a popular teacher in a Dunkin’ drive-thru in Cheltenham, police say, he killed a 35-year-old man in North Philadelphia.
At 10 p.m. on April 7, Philadelphia Police responded to the 5100 block of North Broad Street for reports of gunfire and found Farrell with multiple gunshot wounds. Farrell, of the 5300 block of North 12th Street, was taken to Albert Einstein Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead minutes later.
On the day King was killed, Philadelphia Police detectives spotted a Mercury sedan that matched the description of the car involved in Farrell’s murder on the 1300 block of Duncannon Avenue. When the detectives tried to pull the car over, the driver — later identified as Alhakim — led police on a high-speed chase through the city, then crashed the car into a fence before he was arrested.
The dealer told investigators Jean and Alhakim came to look at the car together on March 30. The dealer said Alhakim told him he was buying the car for himself but registering it in Jean’s name. A screen capture found on Alhakim’s phone showed the exact location of King’s apartment pinned on Google maps, along with a red trail highlighting the route to King’s home. Various photos of King were found on his phone as well, including one that authorities believe Jean had sent to him.
It was unclear how — and how much — Jean allegedly paid Alakim to Kill King. Investigators found a record of only one financial transaction between Jean and Alhakim on Jean’s phone, $5 that she sent him via CashApp less than four hours after King was killed.
