Federal authorities have secured significant prison terms for two men connected to multiple shooting incidents from 2019, including one that claimed the life of a Wilmington resident.
On February 19th, Dion Young, age 23 from New Castle County, received a 13-year federal prison sentence, while his co-defendant Ameer Dunn, also 23 but from Harris County, Texas, was handed a 10-year term.
The sentencing comes after both defendants entered guilty pleas earlier this year to multiple criminal charges stemming from the violent incidents that occurred five years ago in the Wilmington area.
The Department of Justice successfully prosecuted the case, which involved a string of shootings that terrorized the local community and resulted in the tragic death of one victim.
Details about the specific charges and circumstances surrounding the shootings were part of the federal court proceedings that led to these substantial prison sentences for both men.
