Man Convicted In Jenks Murder Sentenced To Life With Possibility Of Parole

A Bristow man was sentenced to life in prison after a jury convicted him of murdering a Jenks man nearly two years ago.

Justin Little was sentenced Monday, January 27 to life with the possibility of parole after 38 years.

In November, Little was convicted for first-degree murder in the death of Johnathan Weatherford in April of 2018. Prosecutors said Little and Weatherford were involved with the same woman.

They said Weatherford was shot, and his body was found by the train tracks in downtown Jenks.

At the time, it was the city's first homicide in four years.
