Killer of black man in parking dispute gets 20 years

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — A white Florida man who told detectives he was irritated by people who illegally park in handicapped spots was sentenced on Thursday to 20 years in prison for the fatal shooting of an unarmed black man outside a convenience store.

Circuit Judge Joseph Bulone called 49-year-old Michael Drejka a "wanna-be" law enforcement officer and a self-appointed "handicapped parking space monitor."

Jurors found Drejka guilty of manslaughter in August.

Drejka confronted Markeis McGlockton's girlfriend Britany Jacobs in July 2018 for parking in a handicapped space at a Clearwater convenience store. McGlockton had gone inside the store with his 5-year-old son to buy drinks. As the confrontation continued, a customer went into the store and alerted McGlockton.

Security video shows McGlockton leaving the store and shoving Drejka to the ground. Seconds later, Drejka pulls out a handgun and shoots the 28-year-old McGlockton as he backs away.
The judge said he found it most ironic that Drejka drove up, illegally parked next to Jacobs' car and then confronted her about parking illegally in a handicapped space.

"He just seems to come out of nowhere, kind of like a superhero, to see that he enforces the handicapped parking spot," Bulone said.

Jacobs, along with McGlockton's parents, spoke before the sentencing.

"There are no words to fully describe what his loss has done to our family," said Jacobs, who had four children with McGlockton. "Our youngest two children will never have memories of their daddy."


That bitch pig should've gotten that.

Prison inmate attacked Michael Drejka over death of ‘brother’ Markeis McGlockton, report says
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crim...ckton-report-says/ar-BB10t23m?ocid=spartanntp

The inmate accused of attacking and injuring Clearwater parking lot shooter Michael Drejka said it was in retaliation for the death that landed Drejka in prison: Markeis McGlockton.

Benjamin Martin struck Drejka with a combination lock attached to a sock on Feb. 11 while both were inmates at Lancaster Correctional Institutional near Gainesville, according to a Florida Department of Corrections report obtained by the Tampa Bay Times.


Martin, 31, of St. Petersburg, told prison officials he attacked Drejka because he “shot and killed his brother Markeis McGlockton on the street," the report said. But prison investigators said they’ve found no record that Martin is a relative of McGlockton, a 28-year-old father of four from Clearwater who was killed in a 2018 dispute over a parking space.


Michele Rayner-Goolsby, an attorney who represents McGlockton’s family, said his parents weren’t aware of any friendship or other social connection between Martin and their son. They were “shocked” at the news of Drejka’s attack, she said. Rayner-Goolsby declined to comment further.

Drejka, 49, sustained a head injury that needed five stitches, his attorneys said. He was placed in protective custody and relocated to an annex of the Columbia Correctional Institution outside of Lake City, according to prison records.

One of the attorneys who represented Drejka at his 2019 trial implored prison officials to press criminal charges against Martin.

“I just hope and pray that the Department of Corrections continues to ensure Mr. Drejka’s safety in the future,” defense attorney John Trevena said. :smh:
