During a 10-minute hearing on Friday, Circuit Judge David Eddy read 21-year-old Michael Bargo’s death sentence.
Bargo was the last of five defendants to be sentenced in the April 2011 murder of Seath Jackson in Summerfield, near Ocala.
“It is the judgment of the law and the sentence of the court for the premeditated murder of Seath Jackson, you Michael Shane Bargo are sentenced to death,” Eddy said.
Prosecutors said Jackson was lured to the home where he was beaten, shot and tortured before his body was burned in a backyard fire pit. The teen’s remains were then placed into three paint buckets and dumped into a limerock pit.
