WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - A 38-year-old man convicted of a 2018 fatal shooting outside a Wichita night club has been sentenced to life in prison. The Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office said Monday in a news release that Brandon Evans shot and killed 37-year-old Isaac Lewis of Wichita outside Daiquiri’s Club.
A 28-year-old woman was shot in the arm. Evans was convicted last year of first-degree murder, aggravated battery and criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon. Evans claimed at his sentencing Friday that he suffered from a mental disease. District Judge Eric Williams sentenced him to life with no parole eligibility until he serves more than 65 years.
