A jury has convicted a 49-year-old man on eight felony charges for the triple murder outside a sports bar in Des Moines in 2021.

Prosecutors said Joshua “Everybodytalksabout” Puloka shot and killed three people outside La Familia Sports Pub and Lounge on September 26, 2021. Two more people were injured in the incident, but survived.Puloka claimed self-defense, but the jury in King County Superior Court convicted him on eight counts — three counts of murder, three counts of manslaughter and two counts of assault.

“Justice was done in this case. Justice for Antoine Matthews, Angelia Hylton and Ezra Taylor who were murdered, justice for the two additional surviving gunshot victims, justice for their families and justice for our entire King County Community,” King County Prosecuting Attorney Leesa Manion said. During the trial, Puloka’s defense attempted to enter AI-enhanced video as evidence, but the judge blocked it from being shown to jurors out of fear of the tool’s “opaque methods.” Judge LeRoy McCullough’s decision not to use the video was based on concerns about the transparency and reliability of AI technology, stating it could confuse jurors and undermine eyewitness testimony.said Puloka was punched, fell to ground and then started firing his gun.

This is Puloka’s third strike, meaning he is subject to life in prison without parole.
