INDIANAPOLIS — An Indianapolis man will spend 60 years in the Indiana Department of Correction for his role in a 2019 deadly shooting of a woman on the city's north side.
A jury previously convicted William Jenkins of murder in March after a two-day trial.

On July 2, 2019, IMPD officers responded to a report of a person shot at a home near Central Avenue and East 37th Street.
Police arrived and found a woman, later identified as Yolanda Moffitt-Santiago, who had been shot in the head. She was taken to a hospital but died from her injuries.
Multiple witnesses told police they saw Moffitt-Santiago arguing with her ex-boyfriend, Jenkins, before she was shot. Witnesses also said Jenkins assaulted Moffitt-Santiago several months before she was shot after she told him she was leaving him.
According to the prosecutor's office, surveillance footage at the home captured audio of a single gunshot being fired, but there was no visual of it happening.
Investigators then used cellphone records to determine Jenkins' whereabouts during the time of the shooting, which showed he was in the area before and after the shooting happened.
