YOUNGSTOWN — The last of three men indicted on aggravated murder in the Oct. 17, 2024, murder of Reynaldo Hernandez, 24, at a home on Bott Street on Youngstown’s East Side is now in custody.
On Monday, Vincent Marbley, 61, of Youngstown, was booked into the Mahoning County jail. Jail records state he was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service, which offered a reward for information leading to his capture in April 2025.
At the time, the reward also was for information leading to the capture of co-defendant Eddie L. Winphrie, 42, of Youngstown, but Winphrie was captured in Columbus on March 30 and is now in the Mahoning County jail.
Winphrie was scheduled for a pretrial Tuesday after being arraigned in the case April 8 before R. Scott Krichbaum of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court. Winphrie is being held without bond.
Attorney Tony Meranto is representing Winphrie. Meranto discussed the case with Assistant Prosecutor John Juhasz and Krichbaum, but nothing was discussed on the record.
Marbley, Winphrie and Andre K. Bailey, 41, were all indicted on the same charges in the case — two counts of aggravated murder with gun specifications and single counts of aggravated robbery with a gun specification, tampering with evidence and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Krichbaum’s office said Tuesday that Winphrie and Marbley will be tried together. They will have a pretrial hearing in about one month.
SENTENCE
Bailey was convicted at trial on all counts in April 2025 and was sentenced to 39 years to life in prison. Visiting Judge W. Wyatt McKay presided over Bailey’s trial on behalf of Krichbaum.
Hernandez’s body was found Oct. 18 in Mount Hope Veterans Memorial Cemetery on Youngstown’s East Side, not far from the home on Bott Street, which was Bailey’s house. In closing statements in the trial, Mahoning County Assistant Prosecutor John Juhasz said surveillance video in Bailey’s house showed Hernandez inside the home with a blood stain on the back of his shirt after he arrived there.
Juhasz said the video showed Bailey “with a gun, pointing it” inside the home. It does not show Hernandez being shot, Juhasz said. The footage showed “brooms. They’ve got mops. They’re moving furniture. They’re rolling up rugs. They’re using bleach,” Juhasz said of the men in the home trying to remove evidence of the killing.
The video also showed Marbley and Winphrie, according to court documents in the Bailey case. Three other men were convicted of lesser offenses in the case.
