Teens charged with carjacking New Orleans DA and his mother plead guilty

Three of the four teenagers charged in the late-night carjacking of Orleans Parish District Attorney Jason Williams last year outside his Lower Garden District home pleaded guilty on Friday to armed robbery charges in Criminal District Court.

Santana "Tink" Gilmore and cousins Amajha "Cheewee" Curtis and Dijohn Curtis each pleaded guilty as charged to three counts of armed robbery — including holding Williams and his mother, Janice Rogers, at gunpoint before stealing Williams' Lincoln Navigator on Oct. 16, 2023.

Later that same night, the teenagers also took a woman’s white Honda Civic from the 1800 block of Baronne Street. Williams, his mother and the woman were uninjured.

The three teenagers had previously pleaded not guilty to the same charges.
