A 16-year-old has been sentenced 45 years in prison in an Evansville murder case from last year.
Arkee Coleman was charged in the shooting death of Johnathan Stitts on Parrett Street last October.
Coleman plead guilty to murder and waived his right to a jury trial back in November.
By doing so, he avoided facing the maximum of 60 years in prison.
He received his sentence in court Thursday morning.
