MINNEAPOLIS – Two men were convicted in the 2019 abduction and killing of a Minnesota real estate agent whom they had lured to a phony home showing in suburban Maple Grove. Cedric Berry and Berry Davis, both 42, were found guilty on all charges against them in the slaying of Monique Baugh. 28. The charges were aiding and abetting:
> Premeditated first-degree murder.
> Attempted premeditated first-degree murder.
> Kidnapping.
> First-degree felony murder while committing kidnapping.
Sentencing was scheduled for July 12. Baugh, mother to a 3-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter, was found dead in an alley in December 2019. She had been kidnapped at gunpoint and driven away in a U-Haul truck and shot to death. Berry and Davis were the first of five suspects in a byzantine plot aimed at Baugh’s manfriend, rapper Jon Mitchell-Momoh, who was at odds with a former business associate and drug dealer, Lyndon Wiggins. Mitchell-Momoh testified earlier that that in 2019 he had left a music label belonging to Wiggins, who had accused him of stealing music and who was subsequently arrested. According to Mitchell-Momoh, Wiggins believed that he had snitched on him. Meanwhile, Wiggins’ womanfriend Elsa Segura, a former probation officer, is awaiting trial for roles in Baugh’s abduction and death. So too are Berry’s wife, Shante Davis, and her sister. Separately, Wiggins pleaded guilty last month to possessing and intending to distribute 33,000 imitation oxycodone pills containing fentanyl. He agreed 15 years and up to life in prison
