A Decatur murder case dating back more than a decade has reached another sentencing. Bobby Gipson has been sentenced to eight years in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree murder in the 2011 killing of Caleb Witty.
Authorities say the 17-year-old was walking home from the Decatur Celebration with his 14-year-old sister when two men confronted them during an attempted robbery. Caleb was shot and killed while trying to protect her.
The second man, Michael Wallace, has pleaded guilty to first-degree murder. His sentencing is scheduled for December.
