Main Line Killer Gets More Prison For Gun Crimes

WYNNEWOOD, PA — One of the men convicted of fatally shooting a man and seriously injuring his mother in their Main Line home was sentenced to even more prison time in a Montgomery County court recently.

According to court documents, Kelvin Roberts Jr., 43, of Philadelphia, was sentenced to an additional 5 to 10 years for firearm crimes, engaging in corrupt organizations, and conspiracy for his role in a gun trafficking ring that was tied to the shooting of Bernadette Gaudio, 61 at the time, and Andrew Gaudio, 25 in Wynnewood.

The Dec. 8, 2024, Main Line home invasion shooting that was committed ostensibly to steal firearms, but a mix-up in addresses being targeted left Bernadette Gaudio paralyzed and killed Andrew Gaudio.

Roberts, Charles Fulforth, 41, and Jeremy Fuentes, 27, of Philadelphia, were all sentenced to life in prison back in September for their roles in the deadly incident., according to court documents.

Fulforth and Fuentes are awaiting trial on gun trafficking charges filed against them, court records show.

About two months after the shooting, Montgomery County authorities also said five people from Philadelphia were charged in connection with the gun trafficking organization that Roberts, Fulforth, and Fuentes were accused of running.

Through a wide variety of investigative techniques, authorities traced the weapon used in the Lower Merion killing — found in Fulforth's Jenkintown apartment — back to the gang's firearm production facility, they said. The investigation included several search warrants and forensic examinations of mobile phone records.

Police described a "highly sophisticated, clandestine" facility where they said Fulforth and his gang used 3D printers to assemble a wide range of illegal firearms, all without serial numbers, making them nearly impossible to trace.

Fulforth also produced "switches," devices which essentially convert firearms to machine guns, significantly increasing both his profit and the danger posed by the weapons, authorities said.

In addition, the group produced firearm suppressors or silencers, making the final product an extremely rare, lethal chimera: a silent machine gun, according to authorities.
