Men charged in 2002 San Francisco killing spree

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — Prosecutors charged two men with several San Francisco murders in connection to a 2002 killing spree. The accused killers are 44-year-old Sauntek Harris, aka “Sauntek Kincaid,” and 48-year-old Shaun Britton.

The duo is currently in custody and they are scheduled to be arraigned on June 6 at the Hall of Justice.

Harris and Britton are accused of murdering the first victim, Perry Bradstreet, on January 18, 2002. Prosecutors said Britton used an assault firearm.

Weeks later, on February 24, 2002, Harris is accused of killing a second victim, Lorenzo Richards. Prosecutors did not release a suspected motive behind the two killings.

The third homicide victim, Gerald White, was shot to death on July 28, 2002. “The victim was a witness to a crime who was intentionally killed for the purpose of preventing his testimony,” the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office wrote.

Harris is also accused of fatally shooting a fourth victim, Dietrich Whitley, on August 10, 2019.

Prosecutors said Harris is a felon with a criminal record in San Francisco. “He was previously convicted of having a concealed firearm and transportation, sale and giving away a controlled substance in January 2004,” the DA’s office wrote.

Investigators did not reveal what new evidence surfaced for cracking the 2002 and 2019 cold cases.
