Escambia Man Gets 40 Years For Shooting
August 18, 2015
State Attorney Bill Eddins announced Monday that Ahmad Sheaffers was sentenced on August 14 by Circuit Judge Edward P. Nickinson, III to 46 years in state prison with 40 years being served day for day under Florida’s 10-20-Life Statute.
Sheaffers was convicted on June 25, 2015 by an Escambia County jury of two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm, shooting from a vehicle, and shooting at a dwelling.
The charges stem from a drive by shooting that occurred June 21, 2014, in the area of Fisher Street and Gonzalez Court. The defendant, known as “Spook”, was identified by witnesses at the scene as being one of possibly two shooters in the backseat of a vehicle. A home was struck multiple times by gunfire, but no one was injured in the shooting.
