A cold-blooded Brooklyn man was found guilty of fatally shooting his ex-girlfriend point-blank in the head as she pushed their three-month-old baby girl in a stroller.
Isaac Argro was convicted of murder in Manhattan court on Thursday – six years after he put a bullet through Azsia Johnson’s temple during the Upper East Side attack on June 29. 2022.
After a weeks-long trial, the jury found Argo, 26, guilty of the heinous crime within two hours of deliberation.
“This brutal execution devastated all of Ms. Johnson’s loved ones, including her devoted family members who attended the trial each day,” said Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg Jr.
“I hope this conviction gives them some sense of justice.”
The young moim was terrified of Argro and had been living in an East Harlem domestic violence shelter to protect herself, the infant and her older child, who she had in a previous relationship, from his wrath.
Argro, who Johnson’s mother Lisa DeSort once described as a rage-filled wannabe gangster, stalked and abused Johnson, who filed multiple police reports against him.
But her family said she wanted to make sure her daughter had a relationship with her dad, so she agreed to meet up with him.
It was only the second time Argro laid eyes on his young child when he murdered Johnson. The twisted killer fled the scene and was arrested two days later.
“Argo subjected Azsia Johnson to extensive physical and emotional abuse before she finally had the immense bravery to leave him in order to protect herself and her children,” Bragg said.
“She was a loving mother who was determined to give coparenting a try, despite Argro’s ongoing campaign of harassment.”
DeSort took to Facebook to celebrate that justice for her aspiring pediatric nurse daughter has finally been served.
“No one can say anything negative about DA BRAGG TO ME! His whole team is amazing!” she wrote.
“My baby girl got her justice and put this monster right where he needs to be!”
Argro is due back in court June 18 for sentencing. His lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
