Two men from Middletown have been handed life sentences plus additional prison time for their involvement in a deadly 2020 shooting that claimed the life of Shiheem Durham.
The Delaware Department of Justice announced that Jason Calhum, 24, and Khalil Dixon received their sentences on March 18th following convictions on several serious charges, with first-degree murder being the most severe.
Calhum was ordered to serve life imprisonment plus an extra 14 years behind bars after being found guilty of the murder charge and other related offenses stemming from Durham’s death four years ago.
Dixon also received a life sentence with additional time added to his punishment for his role in the fatal incident.
The sentencing brings closure to a case that has been working its way through the Delaware court system since the 2020 homicide occurred.
