A Blytheville man was sentenced to 35 years in prison following his murder conviction. According to KAIT, Prosecuting Attorney Sonia Hagood says jury found Reed guilty of first-degree murder and an enhancement for the use of a firearm in the commission of a crime on Wednesday.
The case stems from an incident in August 2020. Reed was arrested for the murder of 52-year-old Willie Wright, who was found with gunshot wounds in the yard of a residence in the 800 block of East Rose in Blytheville. Wright was taken to a Great River Medical Center and later pronounced dead.
