Man Gets 10 Years For Beating

July 19, 2013

A Santa Rosa man will spend the next decade behind bars for beating a man.

Timothy John Lambeth, Jr. of Milton was convicted by a Santa Rosa County jury of aggravated battery. Following the conviction, Judge David Rimmer sentenced Lambeth to 10 years state prison.

Lambeth, 22, was arrested on July 21, 2012, after an investigation by the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office revealed that Lambeth and co-defendant, Kyle Carroll, attacked and beat Phillip Turner as Turner was walking along Carroll Road on the night of June 7, 2012.

Lambeth  and Carroll  repeatedly  punched Turner  causing  serious  injuries  including  a fractured orbital bone and lacerations to his face. Turner was taken to Santa Rosa Medical
Center where he was treated for his injuries. Lambeth claimed that he was not at the location where the beating occurred; however, witnesses put him and Carroll at the scene and saw them attack the victim.

Carroll is scheduled for trial the week of July 29.
