TAMPA â Dontae Johnson, the young man a jury decided was the person who shot and killed a father in front of his teenage son during a dirt bike sale in 2017, was sentenced Friday to 40 years in prison.
Johnson was 17 when the crime occurred. Although prosecutors sought life in prison, state juvenile sentencing laws required a judge to consider his youth, along with several other factors, before imposing the sentence. The 40-year term is the mandatory minimum and comes with the promise of a review of his sentence after 25 years.
