Summary
A jury convicted 27-year-old Robron Lewis of capital murder in the October 2021 shooting death of 23-year-old Jacal Jacob Allen at a McDonald’s parking lot. Lewis, who shot Allen in the driver’s seat and then fired again after Allen exited the car, received a life sentence—no death penalty sought by prosecutors. The trial lasted six days, with deliberations taking just over three hours. Lewis allegedly stole a trash bag of marijuana before fleeing in a white Chevrolet Malibu, spotted by an off-duty officer. Security footage later revealed Lewis and co-defendant Tranquil Jovan Card Jr. hiding on a stage at UTEP’s Union Building. Card, still awaiting trial, admitted setting up the meeting to steal the weed and confessed he had no money for it. He’s held on a $2 million bond. The DA’s office declined to comment pending Card’s trial. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
