The state is pursuing a first-degree murder conviction, which
carries a life sentence. The decision on whether to pursue the
death penalty against Lee will be made in the coming weeks, Wamp
said.
Lee is accused of killing Gabriella Perpetuo, 29, in February. A
medical examiner listed Perpetuo’s cause of death as multiple
blunt force injuries, and the autopsy report listed 12 different
injuries, including multiple hematomas, bone fractures and stab
wounds.
At the time of Lee’s arrest, he was on probation in Franklin
County, Ohio, and Alachua County, Florida, after he was charged
in three separate alleged assaults involving another man, Lee’s
mother and the mother of his child, court records showed.
Prosecutors accused Lee of asking ChatGPT how to get medical
help without calling the police. He asked the artificial
intelligence assistant whether a fall could cause bruising to
two eyes and “two stabby looking wounds,” according to evidence
presented in court.
Lee remains in the Hamilton County Jail without bond.
The 31-year-old Lee played 58 games with the Jets, Kansas City
and Buffalo between 2016 and 2020. The former Ohio State
standout was the 20th pick in the 2016 draft by the Jets.
