A Bartlesville man was sentenced to life in prison with the possibilty of parole for the September 2018 shooting death of Michele E. Mayes.
This was part of a negotiated plea deal for John Jeffery Thomas. The 45-year old male was being charged with first degree murder and violation of a protective order. At the time of the shooting, Mayes had a restraining order against Thomas, her estranged boyfriend. The restraining order came after a domestic incident took place in late August of last year. Thomas had threatened to kill Mayes and himself. Thomas was released on a $10,000 bond before the shooting occurred. Thomas will have to serve 38 years and three months before being eligible for parole. He would be 83 years old. Comments are closed.
