A Williston man was sentenced to 25 years in prison for the shooting death of Khajon Spikes at Willy Mart in February 2021.

According to an Eighth Judicial Circuit release, Frederick Donnell Williams, 29, was sentenced on Wednesday to 25 years with a 10-year minimum mandatory sentence for second-degree murder. He also received 15 years for an occupant shooting from a vehicle and for shooting or throwing a deadly missile into a dwelling, business or vessels and for tampering with evidence and 15 years for possession of a firearm by a felon with a three-year mandatory sentence.

The charges stem from a Feb. 20, 2021 incident when Levy County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) deputies responded to a shooting at the Willy Mart on 20551 US 27 in Williston. The investigation identified Frederick Williams as the suspect who fatally shot 18-year-old Khajon Spikes.  

The investigation also identified Sydney Frasier Jr., 32, as the codefendant and driver of the vehicle Williams used to flee the scene after the shooting.

Judge William E. Davis presided over the charge of plea hearing.

Frasier was previously found guilty after pleading to accessory after the fact for his role in the murder.
