Georgia police have arrested three people — Tyreese Johnson (19), Shaleeya Moore (18) and Joshua Ellis (21) — suspected of murdering a 28-year-old gay social worker named Ronald Trey Peters during early June.

Police arrested Ellis in at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on June 6. According to Project Q, “He’s being held on three charges – aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault and armed robbery – from an unrelated case, according to jail records.”

Police arrested Johnson on July 31 and Moore on July 27. It’s unclear if they have past criminal records.

Two of the suspects reportedly held Peters up at gunpoint for his bag while wearing masks and then shot him multiple times near a MARTA transit station at 8:30 a.m on June 4. A witness said one of the attackers told Peters, “Give me your bag, f*ggot.”

Then, according to the Atlanta Constitution Journal, “One of the unidentified suspects shot the victim in the chest with a chrome pistol, then proceeded to shoot him again in the neck after he was on the ground and took his bag.” The men allegedly fled in a maroon, four-door truck with a third person driving.

Peters was transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead.

Police released photos of the three suspects late last month and declared the murder as “hate motivated.” However, Georgia has no hate crime laws that offer enhanced penalties for targeting a person based on sexual orientation.

In response to the slaying, Allison Padilla-Goodman of the Anti-Defamation League urged state lawmakers to pass hate crimes legislation and added:
