Man Sentenced to Life in Prison for Triple Murder in Ahwatukee
- In July 2024, firefighters responding to a blaze at an apartment complex in Ahwatukee located close to 48th Street and Ray Road discovered three deceased individuals.
- The murders preceded the fire, which the suspect set to conceal the crime following a planned drug-related robbery.
- The three victims, including a 27-year-old woman and two men aged 25 and 37, sustained fatal injuries from stabbings and gunshots, with one individual suffering nearly 30 stab wounds.
- Chase Scott Christman, age 31, admitted to multiple charges including three first-degree murder counts and related felonies, was implicated through both digital and physical evidence, and was sentenced to serve three life terms consecutively without the possibility of parole.
- This case highlights the use of forensic and digital data in securing convictions, and Christman's sentencing ends his ability to escape justice for this violent incident.
