OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — An Omaha man has been sentenced to life in prison for the August 2015 killing of a fellow gang member.
29-year-old Marcus Short was sentenced Tuesday for the August 2015 shooting death of 19-year-old Garion Johnson outside Johnson’s girlfriend’s house.
A co-defendant, Preston Pope, was sentenced to life in prison in November for Johnson’s death. He also received another life sentence for the shooting death of 23-year-old DePrecia Neelon, who was killed two days before Johnson. Short was also charged in Neelon’s death but was acquitted by a jury.
