Man Gets Life For Ensley Shooting
September 19, 2015
An Escambia County man will spend the rest of his life in prison for a 2008 shooting.
Reginald Jerome Smith was convicted by an Escambia County jury of second degree murder and immediately sentenced by Judge Linda Nobles to life in state prison as a prison releasee reoffender. Smith is not eligible for parole and will spend the rest of his life in prison, according to State Attorney Bill Eddins.
This case was previously reversed as a result of a finding by the Florida Supreme Court that a standard jury instruction was incorrect.
On January 16, 2008, Reginald Smith shot Mary Ann Spencer one time resulting in a fatal head wound. The shooting occurred at the home they shared on East Ensley Street.
