Reel killer: Indie film teen actor admits to Harlem street shooting
Monday, October 08, 2012
A teen actor who played a gun-toting killer in a controversial independent movie about violence in Harlem is facing a real-life murder charge for shooting an expectant father on W. 135th St.
Jeremy Sanchez, 16, who played the teen gangster “J” in “Toddlers,” a movie that anti-violence advocates claimed glorified gang life, is also accused of being a stickup man in a Washington Heights armed robbery attempt.
“He thinks he’s living out a movie,” said the mother of slain teen Kenneth Archbold. “My son is gone. He’s not coming back. His daughter is going to have no father. I don’t think he understands that.”
