LAKEWOOD, Colo. — A Jefferson County jury convicted a man on multiple charges, including first-degree murder, in connection with a shooting in Lakewood in April of last year.
Shortly before 3 a.m. On April 30, 2023, agents from the Lakewood Police Department responded to a shooting at a home in the 1200 block of South Marshall Street. When they arrived, they found Amanda Bobian's body on the front porch.
Two brothers, Frankie and Patrick Plasencio were arrested. According to an arrest affidavit, the brothers and another man had been asked to leave the residence due to an altercation. They went outside, and the altercation continued on the front porch, the document says.

The three men eventually got into a Porsche SUV and fired several gunshots at the home. Bobian, who was on the porch, was fatally wounded. A witness returned gunfire toward the SUV, the affidavit says.
That witness later said that Patrick Plasencio sat on the window frame of the door, reached over the roof, and fired toward the house, the affidavit says. He believed that Frankie Plasencio was driving and that the third man was in the back seat.
On Monday, a jury convicted Patrick Plasencio on the following charges.
- First-degree murder - after deliberation
- Attempted murder - after deliberation
- Prohibited use of a weapon
- Prohibited use of a weapon - drunk with a gun
He's set for sentencing on Dec. 20.
Frankie Plasencio previously pleaded guilty to an accessory charge and was sentenced to two years in the Department of Corrections. However, he was given credit for more than a year he'd already spent behind bars.
