Andre Kennedy will wander in prison for the same amount of time as the Children of Israel wandered in the wilderness. Hinds County Circuit Judge Jeff Weill sentenced the carjacking kidnapper to serve forty years in prison yesterday after a jury convicted him of the attempted kidnapping and armed robbery of a Northeast Jackson doctor.
Kennedy and the late Edwin "Guttalife Dee" Robinson kidnapped the good doctor at his home on May 15, 2015. They robbed him and said they were going to do some unmentionable things to his wife. The doctor managed to pull out a pistol from behind the seat of his vehicle and administer a lethal prescription of lead that sent Guttalife to the gutter while Kennedy fled so he wouldn't be dead. JJ reported on May 15, 2015:
A doctor was leaving home to compete in a shooting competition held at Magnolia Pistol Range in Byram at approximately 7:45 AM on May 16, 2015. He made several trips from the house to his truck carrying what he needed for the competition. Unknown to him, two black males were cruising Ridgewood Road looking for someone to rob. They happened upon him walking to his truck near the intersection Ridgewood and Eastover roads. They took him captive at gunpoint and forced him drive to an ATM where they forced him to withdraw a large amount of money. They also mentioned some intentions concerning his wife who was back at home. Intentions that were not exactly nice in nature.
Kennedy and Robinson stopped at Eastover and Pinewood by some woods. They told him to get out of the vehicle. The good Doc managed to grab a pistol as he exited the truck and began firing. He shot and killed Edwin "Guttalife Dee" Robinson of Cooper Road. One person at the scene said "he shot the shit out of him". Kennedy fled the scene. The suspect apparently had parked a tan SUV over at Northminister Baptist Church. He ran to the church and left in the SUV. It did not have a license plate.
JPD caught Kennedy several days later thanks to tips provided by JJ readers and charged him with capital murder, armed robbery, and kidnapping. However, the grand jury did not indict Kennedy for capital murder. Kennedy was an MDOC employee at the time of the crime but was terminated by the department upon his arrest. He was not indicted until February 2016, nine months later.

Judge Weill sentenced Kennedy to serve 45 years in prison for armed robbery but suspended 5 years of the sentence.
The court also sentenced the defendant to serve 25 years in prison for attempted kidnapping. Both crimes qualified for terror enhancement.

We’ll miss Weill...
Yes we will. Can't wait for white Jackson to be introduced to the racist, belligerent, cocky, obnoxious, hot headed, unfriendly, not smart, generally shitty person taking his place....Adrienne Wooten. Don't know her? Ask any politician that does, or attorney for that matter. She is a verbose, asinine bitch. Just wait.
This fat white dog turd made it to drudgereport.com so now the entire world is aware that Mississippi is as corrupt as any other Third World province.
3:01 PM,
Link?
Yea hooray for the judge. If that guy had been in Madison or Rankin then the doctor would of gotten justice. I know it’s hinds county so anything over house arrest (blessing) is a positive.
This is just more proof that if you are going to live in or visit Jackson, even NE Jackson, lock and load. The inner-city predators are coming for you and your property.
Most of Jackson is inner-city.
Jackson is a horrible city that your children love to buy their drugs in... Funny to me.
Why would children buying drugs be funny to you, Theca Jones? That comment just confirms my opinion of you as a low life troll.
