A Maryland court sentenced a teen to 80 years in prison after he shot and killed his classmate in a school bathroom.
Jaylen Prince, 17, was sentenced Oct. 14 for the first-degree murder of Warren Grant in Harford County, Maryland, according to CBS News.
In accordance with Maryland law, Prince will be eligible for parole in 40 years.
“This case underscores the serious consequences of violence within our schools,” Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler said. “When such incidents occur, they not only affect the individuals directly involved but also disrupt the sense of safety and stability that schools are meant to provide.”
It was Sept. 6, 2024, when Grant, 15, was murdered at Joppatowne High School.
