SUMMARY: Travis Lofton was convicted of murder for killing Jason Mallette, a man he believed had raped his wife, Ariel Allen.

Evidence showed Lofton acted on his wife’s false claim of rape, leading him to shoot Mallette at a shopping center. Despite Lofton’s conviction, Allen, whose lies were the motive for the crime, faces no consequences. Lofton’s sentencing is pending, with a sentence of 20 years to life expected.
