AUGUSTA, Ga. – Dmond Jackson, 31, was sentenced to seven consecutive life sentences, followed by an additional 280 years in the Georgia Department of Corrections, after being found guilty by a jury on Thursday, March 13, 2025. The sentencing comes less than a year after Jackson’s arrest on multiple charges stemming from a series of violent crimes committed in the Augusta area.

Jackson was convicted of several serious offenses, including armed robbery, which took place between April 1 and May 30, 2024. His arrest followed just days after the conclusion of the crime spree, on June 3, 2024.

According to District Attorney Jared Williams, Jackson’s criminal actions left a profound impact on the local community. “Dmond Jackson messed around and found out,” Williams said in a statement. “We do not play about our community’s safety.”

The case has drawn considerable attention due to the severity of the crimes and the swift response by law enforcement. The lengthy sentence reflects the commitment of local authorities to uphold justice and ensure the safety of residents.

In addition to the seven life sentences, Jackson faces an extended term of 280 years, which will be served concurrently in the state’s correctional facilities. The ruling has been hailed as a strong message that violent offenders will face severe consequences under Georgia’s legal system.

Residents and community leaders have expressed relief over the verdict, noting that such sentences are necessary to deter others from committing similar crimes. Jackson’s case serves as a reminder of the potential for swift justice when law enforcement and prosecutors work diligently to protect the public.
