Sixty-Year-Old Convicted in Teen’s Fatal Crash | Leeds News

A sixty-year-old man, Terrence King, has been sentenced to life in prison for deliberately driving his car into a fifteen-year-old boy, Devon Simmonds-Caines, who was riding a stolen e-bike—killing him instantly. Though King claimed he only intended to stop the bike, evidence—including footage—showed he chased and struck Devon at high speed. After a mistrial, King admitted to manslaughter and was later convicted of murder. The judge called it “unlawful private retribution,” stressing that theft doesn’t justify violence. Devon’s family honored his bright future and dreams of launching a clothing business, while King, reportedly remorseful, is now held in segregation. He faces a minimum of sixteen years and one day behind bars. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
