BLOOMINGTON — A Monroe County judge sentenced a man to 28 years in prison Thursday for pleading guilty to shooting and killing another man in July 2022.
Kendrick Webb, 25, will serve 25 and a half years of the sentence because he already spent more than two years in jail since his arrest.
Webb pleaded guilty in September to an amended Level 2 felony charge of voluntary manslaughter. The remaining Level 4 felony charge, possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon, was dismissed.
BACKGROUND
The shooting occurred just before 5 a.m. on July 27, 2022. Bloomington police responded to Kinser Flats Apartments after a person found a 28-year-old man dead from a gunshot wound.
Police learned the man had argued with another man, later identified as Webb, and that at some point, Webb pulled out a handgun and shot the man in the head before fleeing the apartment.
Bloomington Police detectives and United States Marshals later tracked down Webb to the area outside Chicago. He was arrested two weeks after the shooting.
