CRESTVIEW — A 15-year-old boy faces up to 40 years in prison after he pleaded no contest to the charges of attempted robbery with a firearm, shooting into a vehicle, burglary of a conveyance and grand theft auto.
James Jamone Jackson faces a minimum 25 years in prison if he is treated as an adult at his sentencing May 29 before Okaloosa County Circuit Judge Michael Flowers, according to the state attorney’s office.
