  • On Monday, May 5th, 2025, Calvin Crew, 25, was formally sentenced in court to life imprisonment without the chance of parole for the murder of Uber driver Christina Spicuzza.
  • Crew ordered an Uber ride on February 10, 2022, using his girlfriend's phone, then threatened Spicuzza with a gun and ignored her pleas for mercy during the trip.
  • Spicuzza, a 38-year-old mother of four, was found dead from a gunshot wound to the back of her head in a wooded area two days later, with dashcam footage documenting the attack.
  • Calvin Crew was found guilty of first-degree murder and additional offenses, resulting in a life sentence without parole plus 13 to 26 years; Spicuzza’s family requested that prosecutors forgo the death penalty in accordance with her religious principles.
