Trial date set for brothers accused of killing pharmaceutical deliveryman
They will head to trial in January 2027
SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - A federal trial date has been set for two brothers accused of killing a pharmaceutical deliveryman.
Kevin and Larry Lewis were indicted last August by a federal grand jury and will head to trial Jan. 25, 2027.
Federal prosecutors are no longer seeking the death penalty.
The charges
Prosecutors say the brothers helped each other steal prescription drugs and a work van of the victim, Billy Jamison.
During the incident, Jamison was making a delivery from the Hackbath Company to the Walgreens at the corner of Line Avenue and Kings Highway in Shreveport.
The federal indictment says the brothers helped each other and knowingly used a gun during the robbery, causing the death of Jamison.
Additional charges
In December 2024, the Lewis brothers are also accused of stealing around $500 in cash from the owner/manager of the Pull Up Liquor, located on Hearne Avenue.
The robbery reportedly happened as the owner was closing the store and walking to his car in the parking lot.
