A Houston man, Jordan Javon Ashton, is sentenced to 84 months in federal prison for his role as a getaway driver in an armed robbery that took place on Halloween. A jury found the 28-year-old guilty after a three-day trial where they deliberated for less than two hours following the robbery at Morelos Supermercados, executed by two masked individuals who threatened employees with a firearm.
