QUINCY, Fla. (WCTV) - Two men have been found guilty of first degree murder in the 2019 shooting of Karlos Campbell in Gadsden County following a three-day trial.

Vornell Davis and Tyrell Alexander Jackson were sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of first degree murder.

Karlos Campbell, 57, was shot and killed on November 19, 2019, while he sat in a vehicle with Brianna Howard, who was also shot multiple times but survived.

Prosecutors say the shooting happened during a failed robbery attempt, and Campbell was driving the van of the intended target of the robbery.

Two co-defendants testified against Davis and Jackson and will receive plea deals for their cooperation.

Davis and Jackson were found guilty as charged of both first degree murder and first degree attempted murder and swiftly sentenced to life in prison.
