In a recent development, a man has been sentenced to life in prison for a deadly shooting that occurred in Daytona Beach in 2020. The victim, Jeffrey Schusky, was found dead at a local motel on January 18, 2020. An investigation revealed that Schusky died from gunshot wounds.
According to the State Attorney’s Office, the suspects, Tarek Mneimne and Taylor Holcomb Barber, had set up a robbery. Barber allegedly shot Schusky, and both suspects stole drugs and cash from his motel room. It was discovered that Mneimne, a longtime friend of Schusky, had brought Barber to the room with the intent to steal from him.
The trial concluded with Mneimne being found guilty of first-degree murder. He was subsequently sentenced to life in prison. This ruling serves as a reminder that the justice system holds individuals accountable for their actions, especially when they result in the loss of innocent lives.
