Jermaine Dewone Bolden, 36, who had the street name “Sockhead,” was sentenced Monday by District Judge Ramona Emanuel to four decades in prison for an armed robbery conviction and a 10-year concurrent term for aggravated battery.
Bolden was convicted of armed robbery and aggravated battery, both with a firearm, on Feb. 27, 2020, in Caddo District Court.
Jury deliberation took less than 30 minutes.
Bolden s victim was shot and robbed on April 8, 2018, after he was lured to a friend s home where Bolden was a guest.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys Sam Crichton and Ed Blewer. Bolden was defended by Kurt Goins.
MANSFIELD, La. â A former DeSoto Parish sheriffâs deputy who had sex with a female inmate during a transport pleaded guilty this week to malfeasance in office.
Meanwhile, criminal cases are pending against two other men who used to wear a sheriffâs badge. One will be in court on May 14, while the other has a June court date.
As for the guilty plea, 39-year-old Joseph Procell of Stonewall pleaded to the felony offense in exchange for a second charge of third-degree rape being dismissed. The dismissal was without prejudice, meaning the District Attorneyâs Office is not prevented from bring it up again.
