Kenneth Creek
An Atlantic City man who claimed self-defense was sentenced to 50 years in prison for the murder of a Philadelphia man in 2022.
Kenneth Creek, 49, was charged within days of the Aug. 25, 2022, killing of Jordan Eaddy.
Eaddy, 31, of Philadelphia, was found fatally shot just after midnight in the 1300 block of Baltic Avenue by officers responding to a ShotSpotter audio gunshot-detection alert.
Creek remained a fugitive for months in the case.
During a detention hearing in January 2023, Creek's attorney claimed the victim had a gun and shot first.
The fatal wound was to Eaddy's back, the medical examiner testified.
Callahan previously indicated that he gave the gun to Creek, but did not know it was going to be used to kill anyone, according to information released at Callahan's detention hearing in 2022.
