Montgomery woman sentenced to 25 years in Mobile County death
A Montgomery woman was sentenced in Mobile County this week to 25 years in prison after a jury found her guilty of murder in a 2024 fatal shooting. The Mobile County judge imposed the sentence following the jury conviction handed down in August. The defendant remains in custody at the Mobile County Metro Jail pending transfer to the Alabama Department of Corrections.
Prosecutors presented evidence that the victim, identified in court records as Jacurtis Robinson, was shot in March 2024 on Seabreeze Road North in Mobile. The jury convicted the defendant of murder; the conviction and the subsequent sentence were the immediate outcomes of that trial. The timing presented at sentencing tied the verdict to the shooting months earlier.
Defense counsel during trial argued the shooting occurred as an attempt to stop a robbery, asserting a defensive context for the firearm discharge. That claim was presented to the jury but did not prevent conviction; the jury’s verdict is a documented finding of guilt. The judge then applied sentencing law to impose the 25-year term as recorded in courtroom proceedings.
At this point the case status is: convicted by a jury in August and sentenced by a Mobile County judge in late September 2026. Court records show the sentence and the incarceration location; no appeal or post-conviction filings are documented in the information provided.
