CHIPLEY — Brandon Terrell Ramsey was sentenced to serve life in prison Monday for his role in a March 2014 burglary and armed robbery.
Ramsey was convicted last month after a one-day trial recounted events from last March in which he entered the Chipley residence of Travis Yarbrough. Investigators say he attacked Yarbrough, “pistol whipping” the victim before leaving with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Assistant State Attorney Shalla Jefcoat told the court the Ramsey admitted the crime
Ramsey was last released from the Florida Department of Corrections in 2012 after serving sentences relating to the sale of cocaine and the manufacturing of a firebomb.
Ramsey will serve two concurrent life sentences, one for robbery with a firearm, and another for burglary of an occupied dwelling with a firearm.
