Columbus Man Sentenced For Gang-Related Killing

Youngstown Police

A Columbus man will serve 11 years in prison for beating and killing another man in September of 2015. 39-year-old Danyell  Florida was sentenced as part of a plea bargain for the death of 28-year-old Dametrious Edwards. The deal was reached before the start of a trial. A co-defendant, 23-year-old Kalene Bartlett, is awaiting sentencing. Police believe the killing was gang-related.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
