Gang Member Who Stabbed Leonia Woman Dead Gets 30-Year Plea Deal
UPDATE: A Paterson gang member pleaded guilty to stabbing his new girlfriend to death in the Leonia apartment that she shared with her young daughter.

In exchange for his guilty plea, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said his office will seek a 30-year prison sentence for Diakos.

That unfortunately leaves the case open -- and loved ones, friends and others who cared for Rhoden still without closure. Whitaker was driving as he and the mystery killer followed Rhoden from a pickup …

It was unclear how he got the state job, given concerns that district officials had expressed over Frazier having a boy sleep overnight i…
