Former Yellow Jackets hoop star Javaris Crittendon plead guilty to manslaughter and is going to serve 23 years in prison.
Crittendon was originally charged with murder and other crimes when he participated in a 2011 drive-by shooting that killed Julian Jones who was a 22-year-old mother of four.
His driver the night of the drive-by was his cousin Douglas Gamble who is also going to serve 20 years after pleading guilty to aggravated assault.
You hate to see people throw away opportunity and talent because they could not shake a way of life that is detrimental to their health and the health of people around them.
