Brian D. Loving

Brian D. Loving fatally shot 17-year-old Chantilly High School student Derek C. Forbes with a .41 magnum caliber revolver during an altercation at Loving's home at 14483 Golden Oak Road in Centreville on August 24, 1987.[1]

Forbes was flown to Fairfax Hospital, where he died early the next morning.[1]

Loving was arrested and charged with murder.[1] At trial, Loving claimed he feared for his life, which was why he shot Forbes. After a two-day trial, Loving was convicted of voluntary manslaughter on December 4, 1987, with the jury recommending he serve a six-year sentence.[2]
