Updated: Nov 9, 2023

Assistant district attorney Lance Beal prosecuted the case.



Kennon Milstead, 19, was sentenced to 20 years in prison, with 10 years suspended, in the 2020 shooting death of 24-year-old Kee Sam, a Black transgender woman.


Judge Colbert said he weighed the facts of the case, the victim's age and a history of mental health struggles, among other factors, when making his sentencing decision.
