Man pleads guilty to murdering Hopkins student

Linda Trinh would have turned 23 this month, the baby of her family with a Johns Hopkins University degree, heading off to medical school, perhaps, or already part way through.

Instead, Trinh happened to be at home in her Charles Village apartment the January 2005 evening that Donta Allen broke in. On Tuesday morning, as more than a dozen of Trinh?s family members and friends looked on, Allen pleaded guilty to her murder.
