CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) – A judge has sentenced Marvin Menifee to 25 years in a three year old murder case.

A jury convicted him of criminally negligent homicide and especially aggravated robbery in March.

Prosecutors say he shot Alfred Pitmon four times at a home on Seventh Avenue.

Pitmon was described as a small time marijuana dealer, but he had helped raise Menifee.

Menifee has another murder charge pending against him.

He is accused of committing a drive by shooting while he was out on bond for the Pitmon murder.
