Markeith Loyd Sentenced to Death: What We Know So Far
Floyd was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, according to court records. He was found guilty on five counts, including first-degree murder of a law enforcement official, attempted first-degree murder, aggravated assault, carjacking with a firearm, and possession of a gun by an offender convicted previously.
Lloyd was sentenced to death in October 2019 for murdering his ex-girlfriend Sade Dixon, who was eight months pregnant at the time of her murder. He avoided the death penalty in that case after a jury recommended a life sentence. After being sentenced to death on March 3, 2022, Markeith Loyd screams at the gallery as deputies carry him away from the courtroom.
