Daniel Jenkins, 22, of Dallas, pleaded guilty in June to one count of conspiracy to commit hate crimes, kidnapping, carjacking, one hate crime count, and one count of using a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
Daniel Jenkins, 22, was the last of four defendants to be sentenced in what prosecutors called a conspiracy to target gay men.
Jenkins was the last of four defendants to be sentenced in the conspiracy that used Grindr, a social media app that is used primarily by gay men.A lawyer for Jenkins was not immediately available for comment Thursday. In one incident early that month, after the men arrived, the members of the conspiracy held the men at gunpoint and forced them to drive to ATMs to withdraw cash from their accounts, according to the Department of Justice.
Jenkins’ co-conspirators were Michael Atkinson, Pablo Ceniceros-Deleon and Daryl Henry, all of whom were in their 20s. The three men pleaded guilty in June, and their sentences ranged from 11 to 22 years. In a statement Thursday, Grindr said it was “always saddened to hear about the difficult and sometimes tragic experiences that our community members have experienced both online and off.”
