Hombre de Mississippi es sentenciado a 10 años por matar a su padre

Un hombre de 27 años de Mississippi se declaró culpable de asesinato en segundo grado y fue sentenciado a 10 años de prisión por disparar mortalmente a su padre durante una discusión en 2022.

Jeffrey Young Jr. presentó su declaración el viernes ante el Tribunal de Circuito del 9º Distrito ante la jueza Toni Terrett. Recibió una sentencia de 40 años, de los cuales deberá cumplir 10 en una prisión estatal por la muerte de su padre, Jeffrey Young Sr.

El tiroteo tuvo lugar en julio de 2022 en una vivienda ubicada en Castle Road, en la urbanización Camelot Estates del condado de Warren, justo al sur de Vicksburg. Las autoridades señalaron que una breve discusión sobre los altavoces de un automóvil precedió al incidente, durante el cual Young Jr. disparó a su padre varias veces en el patio delantero.

El testimonio judicial describió un historial de presuntos abusos por parte de la víctima, incluyendo declaraciones de familiares y testigos sobre violencia alimentada por el alcohol. Los fiscales señalaron que el padre estaba de espaldas y no representaba ninguna amenaza en el momento del tiroteo.

Young Jr. expresó remordimiento en el tribunal, declarando que su padre lo había presionado demasiado ese día. La hermana de la víctima pidió a la jueza que impusiera la pena máxima.
