A Texas Man Thought He Knew Who Killed His Friend, So He Fatally Shot Him. He Was Wrong.

A Texas man will spend 75 years behind bars after fatally shooting a man he believed was connected to the murder of his friend.

Siren Anney, 21, recently was sentenced following a four-day trial for the murder of 22-year-old Trevor Alan Harrison on Nov. 23, 2020, according to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office.

Authorities said Anney and Harrison knew each other. Anney falsely believed Harrison was involved in the murder of his friend in 2020.

On Nov. 23, that year, Anney lured Harrison to an apartment complex in Humble, where he shot the victim in the parking lot using a 9mm semi-automatic handgun, officials said.

Anney fled from the area and, 21 minutes later, he listed the murder weapon for sale online.

The defendant later saw an article about the shooting, took a photo of the piece and shared it with his friend. Anney said he stayed up all night waiting for the article to be posted.

Investigators looked at Harrison’s text messages and determined that Anney had killed the man.

“This defendant spent hours doing everything he could to lure this young man to his death, including sending messages and making calls to set up the victim," Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said.
