Watch: Wayne County Prosecutor announces murder charges after 2023 killing of Dr. Devon Hoover

[@minnieautry3725]

Thankful for justice for Dr. Hoover and his family. The search for justice was far and long! Many thanks to all involved in presenting a case that will stand up in court!

[@SgtBroke-bm8gt]

So he killed someone else while he should have been under arrest for killing hoover?

[@kevinmach730]

I do think it was after, yes. It's confusing because around the 11:30 mark she mentions the date of the other crime as Oct 17, 2024- which obviously has not occured yet. I am assuming she meant 2023, but I don't know that for sure.

Great job to the Wayne County Prosecutor and their joint investigative success with so many detectives.

[@kevinmach730]

Mixed feelings. Glad the killer is potentially found, not so happy about the fact that this was a high profile case about a prominent surgeon who was heavily involved in his community. Had it been you or I, I have a feeling this probably would have gone unsolved.

[@susanmarie2231]

How unfortunate the arrest could not be made before he killed someone else. Very sad.

[@rodentcafeteria]

I was curious as to how long this relationship had been going on, and how they managed to cross paths in the first place?

[@Arabellia-o6v]

I am not sure if you listened to the whole entire video,but at one point Kym Worthy said that this man was paying this man for sex or sexual favors So from what it is possible that he could have been a male prostitute.

I am so glad that someone has been arrested. And will be held accountable for this horrific crime. I pray that his family will be able to get some kind of peace. In knowing that this is happening.

@@moralfortitude...2217 my brother was murdered in Detroit and her office knew the DPD did a poor investigation. Her reply was a poor investigation is not criminal. Kim worthy only cares about high profile cases , and to keep the prosecutors office with a high conviction rate she only prosecutes cases she knows she can win. Also, if it cost too much to for a case she might lose , she won’t take it. My brother’s murderer is still on the streets. My brother was just a lowly electrician.🤬

Not in a relationship. They had a sexual relationship and the Dr was paying him for sex. How much do you want to bet Desmond was one of his patients, and that’s how they met?! Just because he held the title of Dr, doesn’t mean he wasn’t evil himself.

[@sherireedy329]

@@inesplain8870 oh yeah, I wouldn’t think that they were in a relationship. The doctor was a neurosurgeon. I doubt very much that this evil killer was a patient. As someone with skeletal/bulging and herniated disc in my neck and back. I can’t see this guy being able to pull off this gruesome murder and take a carpet with a deadweight body and carry it up into an attic. My guess would be he did some work around his house or they met at the store, or could be a number of ways. There’s nothing at all to suggest that the victim was anything more than that, victim of opportunity and circumstance. This killer was just pure evil, and his motive was money, I’m sure jewelry, I know there were very expensive statues taken, possibly car to joy ride. Who knows. R.I.P. to this prominent Doctor and I hope the killer never sees the light of day. Pure evil and cruelty. You can see it in his mugshot. Zero remorse. Planned first degree premeditated murder=lwop

[@robk9685]

The hired sex slave didn't "belong" to him either. Sounds like the killer was due for a raise that wasn't granted so he took the $7500 Cartier watch the doctor bought THE NIGHT BEFORE he was murdered. Only in Detroit......at this point I'm blaming the victim, yes I am. If he was that stupid outside of his career skills.....I've been around the block quite a few times. This was the most pretentious gay man I've ever witnessed. And there are more of them in that 'hood with high school diplomas and Audi's. What a mess!

Paying lovers for sex is absurd unless he was a prostitute and lastly he wouldn’t live in the hood if they were lovers the gays in Detroit would’ve known all about it whether it’s a secret or not (it’s a small village trust me) and secondly he would’ve been enjoying the nice lavish life living in Dr. Hoover’s house enjoying it all from his expense.
