Suspects In Pizza Delivery Driver's Death Sentenced

Columbus Division of Police

Two suspects in the fatal shooting of a pizza delivery driver last fall were sentenced to prison time today. 17-year-old Diondre Jefferson will serve life in prison and 19-year-old Sean Fletcher will serve nine years for their roles in the death of 45-year-old James Crabtree Junior. Prosecutors say the two lured Crabtree to a North Cassady Avenue home to rob him. Jefferson was to be sentenced in mid September, but officials decided to sentence the two together.
