Escambia Man Gets 20 Years For Robbing Pizza Delivery Driver
May 20, 2011
An Escambia County man was sentenced Thursday to 20 years in prison for the robbery of a pizza delivery driver.
Dymielle Chandler, 19, was convicted by an Escambia County jury in January of robbery with a weapon, burglary of conveyance armed with explosives or deadly weapon, and aggravated battery with great bodily harm.
On January 27, 2010, Chandler was waiting inside the victim’s pizza delivery truck when he robbed her with a knife to her throat then fled on foot. Chandler was located by the Escambia County K-9 Unit hiding under a house which was located directly behind the parking lot where the victim’s car was parked. Also, the victim’s blood was found on the jacket that Chandler was wearing when he was apprehended, according to the State Attorney’s Office.
Chandler faced a maximum of life in prison.

THIS is exactly why when a child does the first act of taking something
that doesn’t belong to them, they should be yanked up and made aware
that it WON’T be tolerated, even by mom and dad.
If parents don’t teach them, this is the way their life will be.
When a person commits an aggravated crime against another with a weapon of any sort, they intend to use said weapon. It should be life because the perp had intent. It might be the only way to stem violent crime is to make the penalty so severe that people would think twice about committing the crime. But wait. people who rob what others have, have no conscience so it won’t stop anything.
20 years wasn’t enough !!
If this thug serves his full sentence, which he probably
won’t he’ll be only 39 when he’s free to roam OUR streets
and commit more armed robberies.
He should have been sentenced to at least 50 years !!!!
Where are his parents???????
I am deeply saddened and upset that my tax dollars will now go to feed and house this criminal for the next 20 years. Oh wait, this is America, he will probably make parole and walk in 5 years! Obviously he is a very violent offender and I would not be surprised to learn of his involvement in more crimes while incarcerated. Prison rehabilitation is not the most successful so we have lots to look forward to when he is released.
The sad thing is he probably only scored a few dollars, less than $100 from this violent crime. I have never known pizza delivery drivers to carry large amounts of cash. This shows just how much this dirt bag values human life.
Blood on him from the knife at her throat for money, how vicious.
He should have gotten life with no chance of parole, I sure don’t
want to meet up with him on the street…..ever.
