Nicholas Coats will spend the next 30 years in prison after he pleaded guilty to second degree murder in the death of Chelsie Kirschten. The 24 year-old woman was shot to death on Fortification Street on August 17, 2017. Hinds County Circuit Judge Jeff Weill sentenced Coats to serve forty years in prison but suspended ten years of the sentence.

Paige and Dixon have not yet gone to trial. Judge Weill leaves the bench at the end of the year. Circuit Judge-Elect Adrienne Whooten will assume his caseload. Attorney Damon Stephenson represented Coats. He will serve a supervised probation term of five years upon release from prison.

Mother fucker should be shot until dead
POS
When does he get out? 30 years doesn't mean he serves 30.
He's a punk and will be the prison bitch after about five minutes. Notice the obligatory "tough thug" look in the photo? Nah, without a gun he's a sissy bitch.
The judge gave him 10-years off because he is also a snitch.

IF Damon was smart he’d withdraw the guilty plea and plead in front of the new judge. The state was willing to offer less time even against the families wishes.. Watch and see...
Remind me. Was this random or was there a back story?
The back story presented in discovery is that the defendants were at a dice game, ran out of money, then when looking for more. Saw victims leaving George Street and followed them to fortification. The vehicles were caught on the Supreme Court building cameras and various other cameras in the area. With the cameras and defendants cell phone pings they were able to track them to crime scene location. So it was a robbery gone bad.
Jeff Weill is at work?
Amazing!
Robbery gone bad my ass. It was a hate crime.
I've never heard that (but not doubting you) 7:08. On this Blog we kept seeing speculative chatter about a drug deal but there was zero evidence of anything like that. Just glad they were caught and convicted, both of which are rather surprising, considering...
I don't know if this was a federal prosecution or not, but, if not, why not?
Calling this a "robbery gone bad" is like saying 9/11 was a series of airline accidents.
It was murder, not "felony murder," but MURDER!
So if he keeps his nose clean in jail he should be out before he turns fifty. Thanks Feel and Andy Gibson for HB 585
KF, was it random like what @7:08 said? All we knew before was what Mary Pason @9:46 said. Lots of the pro-Jackson sheeple insisted it wasn't random. If I recall, they told us the shooter had been in the backseat of her car, got out, and then shot her.
Thanks to kingfishes history lesson we now know if these boys had pulled this 100 years ago they would all be swanging from the bridge.
He was the driver?
This boy executed this woman ,why has he not been given death.
@6:46 PM, because in Jackson he is a member of a protected and entitled class.
The class has felt entitled ever since they get free money free housing free food. Dependant state society. I use to install direct TV and I was never shocked that the nicest largest screens were always in some crappy low income areas or apartments. High dollar shoes lined up with nice clothes. Anyway I guess it's true what they say a poor man has a big TV a wealthy man has a big library.
