Escambia Man Gets Life For Killing Teen
September 13, 2012
An Escambia County man was convicted Wednesday afternoon in a 2011 murder and sentenced to two life terms.
State Attorney Bill Eddins said Jeremy Cornell Rand was convicted by an Escambia County Jury of one count of first degree premeditated murder and one count of attempted premeditated murder. At the conclusion of the trial, Judge Jan Shackelford sentenced Rand to two-life sentences to run concurrent with each other.
The convictions stemmed from the September 9, 2011, killing of Deiante Graham and shooting of Neyshana Nobles. Rand and two others confronted the victims in the parking lot of the Royal Crest Apartment complex while they were sitting in their car.
Rand mistakenly thought Graham had been looking through his apartment window and after Graham continued to deny it, Rand shot him in the chest. Nobles was shot one time in the neck.
Donny McKay, Jr., is also charged in the shooting and is scheduled for trial in November.

I hope he feels lucky in general population !
CONSIDERING:
“Judge Jan Shackelford sentenced Rand to two-life sentences to run concurrent with each other.”
At least when he gets through with one sentence he won’t have to start on the other, although, come to think of it, it would be instantly satisfied even if it were consecutive.
David wondering how long it’ll ACTUALLY be
Premeditated, life sentence? It would be interesting to know what the mitigating factors were that led to that decision.
Mr Rand must feel like the luckiest guy in town.
i’m happy my family finally got justice rest easy dman
