For the third time in 11 years, Stephen Mobley stands accused of killing someone.

Two people, this time.

Police believe Mobley shot and killed Jasmine Hines, 22, and Rashaud Taylor, 23, inside a home on Pinewood Avenue early Monday morning.

The 32-year-old already is a convicted killer. In 2007, he pleaded guilty to a charge of involuntary manslaughter in the 2005 shooting death of a 20-year-old man in College Hill Courts. He was sentenced to six years in prison and was released in June 2010, state records show.

Then, Mobley was charged with first-degree murder in the 2012 slaying of Gregory Watkins, but those charges were dismissed in 2015 after a jury could not agree on a verdict.
