\"IMG_1233\"<\/a>The third of four defendants charged with executing a 33-year-old Coatesville barbershop owner in 2006 received a mandatory life sentence for first-degree murder in Chester County Court on Monday.<\/p>\n

With minimal comment, Judge David Bortner imposed the penalty on Shamone \u201cKadoff\u201d Woods, 32, of Coatesville. The judge also ordered Woods to spend prison terms of 18 to 40 years for conspiracy to commit first-degree murder and four to eight years for burglary; however, those penalties will run concurrently.<\/p>\n

According to trial testimony, Eric Coxry, 36,\u00a0 of Philadelphia, received $20,000 from Woods to have Jonas \u201cSonny\u201d Suber killed on Oct. 21, 2006, an execution for which he enlisted Jeremiah \u201cYoung\u201d Bush, 27, of Philadelphia, to serve as his getaway driver. Woods was carrying out a directive from Duron \u201cGotti\u201d Peoples, 35, of Coatesville, who had a grudge against Suber, the owner of Platinum Cuts in Coatesville, because Suber allegedly slept with Peoples\u2019 girlfriend.<\/p>\n

Bortner explained that because he had no discretion on the life sentence and because Peoples, who could face the death penalty, is awaiting trial, it was not appropriate to elaborate. He said his brevity should not suggest that he did not recognize the seriousness of the crimes or \u201cthe personal grief and life-altering consequences\u201d for the victims, two of whom spoke at the hearing.<\/p>\n

The victim\u2019s mother, Donna Suber Pendleton, expressed gratitude to the police, the prosecutors, who included Deputy District Attorney Ronald Yen and Assistant District Attorney Brian Burack, and the jury for obtaining justice in the case. She said people have suggested that her son has wings now, but \u201cShamone\u2019s wings have been clipped today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bashera Grove, the victim\u2019s widow and mother of their 7-year-old daughter, witnessed the murder and said it has been excrutiating to observe Woods\u2019 lack of remorse. \u201cHe needs to be in jail for the rest of his life,\u201d she said. \u201cI don\u2019t know him, but I know he\u2019s caused me a lot of pain.\u201d<\/p>\n

Evan Kelly, Woods\u2019 attorney, said his client wanted to make a statement; however, he advised against it because Woods is facing a post-conviction hearing in an unrelated shooting case. \u201cBoth of my attorneys told me not to say anything,\u201d Woods told the judge.<\/p>\n

In addition to the prison term, Bortner ordered Woods to pay more than $31,000 in restitution, which includes expenses for the funeral, coroner, state police laboratory, and the Crime Victims Assistance Compensation Fund.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
