Episode Details

A 25-year-old man, Tamajhe Turner, just received a 15-year federal sentence for firing 20+ rounds at a Lubbock County Sheriff’s Deputy — mistaking him for a rival gang member. The deputy, part of a task force, pulled over Turner and a companion for suspicious behavior, triggering the gunfire that also struck nearby homes. Turner, who also admitted to possessing drugs and cash, pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including discharging a firearm during a drug crime. Despite claiming he felt threatened, the judge rejected leniency, citing public danger and the severity of the attack. Turner now faces the maximum federal sentence alongside any pending state charges — all to be served consecutively.
