Jefferson City man sentenced to life in prison for second-degree murder

A Jefferson City man was sentenced to life in prison Wednesday for second-degree murder.

During a New Year’s party where they were both together, 26-year-old Jeffery Millens shot and killed 23-year-old Quonterio Davis.

Prosecutors said both men had children with the same woman.

For his crimes, Millens was sentenced to 10 years for armed criminal action and 10 years from unlawful possession of a firearm.

Those sentences will be served after the completion of his life sentence.
