JENNINGS COUNTY — A Louisville, Kentucky man was sentenced to 95 years in prison in the shooting death of a Jennings County man earlier this year in the Country Squire Lakes area.
Stephon Moore, 30, was sentenced Tuesday in Jennings Circuit Court to 60 years in prison for the April 15 death of Donavon Booker and 35 years for the attempted murder of Larry Evans, according to court records.
Moore had been found guilty in September in a jury trial of a Level 1 felony murder charge and a Level 1 felony attempted murder charge, court records state. He was found not guilty on another attempted murder charge and a Level 6 felony charge of theft of a firearm.
Moore was given credit for 196 days already served in jail between April and October and he was ordered to serve the sentence in the Indiana Department of Corrections.
He was also ordered to pay $6,904.65 in favor of Montel Booker for the funeral expenses for Donavon Booker, the sentencing order read.
