Two Sentenced For Robbery; One Gets Life, One 30 Years

July 13, 2011

Two Escambia County men were sentenced Tuesday afternoon in Escambia County by Judge Linda L. Nobles.

Jazz Vonshay Dewindt and Tiderius Terrel Warren were found guilty by an Escambia County jury of robbery with a firearm, shooting at an occupied vehicle and two counts each of aggravated assault in April of this year. Jazz Dewindt qualified for Prison releasee reoffender status and received a mandatory life sentence for his involvement in the August 2010 incident. Tiderius Warren was sentenced to a total of 30 years state prison, with a minimum mandatory 20 years to be served.

On August 8, 2010 siblings Ashley and Travis Benjamin were at the corner of Tarragona and Hernandez when Warren flagged their vehicle down and told them to pull over, according to State Attorney Bill Eddins. Warren, Dewindt and a third unidentified male pulled out handguns and began demanding money. Dewindt grabbed Ashley’s purse. As Ashley and Travis quickly pulled away, all three individuals pointed guns at the vehicle and fired multiple times into it.
