Anderson originally pled not guilty to the charge, but was found guilty.

On April 10, 2015, he was sentenced to two years probation. He was also ordered to pay $1,205 in fines.

Anderson, 27, and Antonio Vega Jr. 25, were found shot and burned to death in DePaola’s car on Friday.

“Aaron Anderson, a friend of my son, was supposed to drop my son off at the airport, park the car and not use it,” DePaola, 56, told RadarOnline.com. “But he used the car and then this horrific accident happened. The cops never thought I had anything to do with it. This would’ve happened in my car or not.”

Clarence Williams, 26, and Gerry Thomas, 28, have been arrested in connection to the murders, News12NJ reported.

Anderson’s mother, Michele Ryerson, believes her son was murdered for talking to police about someone accused of attempted murder. She speculates Vega was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Anderson was father to a 1-year-old son, while Vega was father to a 5-year-old daughter, with another child on the way.

DePaola told RadarOnline.com that she will be honoring the victims and their families with a fundraiser.

“I’m going to throw a fundraiser in the beginning of June,” DePaola told RadarOnline.com. “There are people they left behind, their families and children.”
