Aaron Davis, 22, was sentenced Friday to 32 to 37.5 years in prison in Greene County District Court, the Greene County Prosecutor’s Office said.
As News Center 7 previously reported, he pleaded guilty in April to attempted murder, aggravated murder, assault, tampering with evidence and possession of a weapon under disability.
“Today, Judge (Adolfo) Tornichio handed down a lengthy prison sentence to a violent young man who nearly took someone’s life,” said Greene County District Attorney David Hayes. “This sentence should make it clear to everyone that if you come to Greene County and commit violent crimes, you’re going to have to deal with a Greene County judge.”

Davis was accused of pointing a gun at an 18-year-old Kettering woman in 2022 after she had already been shot, but the gun jammed and she was able to escape.
News Center 7 reported in 2022 that the case involved a shooting on Sept. 12 near 900 Ford Road and 1281 Hilltop Road in Xenia Twp., according to the DA’s Office.
Xenia sheriff’s deputies and police officers were dispatched to a report of a shooting where an 18-year-old woman was found with a gunshot wound to her neck.

When Davis is released from prison, he will be on supervised release for up to five years and must register as a violent offender for at least 10 years after his release, the Attorney General’s Office said.
Ladashiaun Brown was one of three suspects involved in the shooting and was sentenced to 20-25 years in prison in November 2022.
The third suspect, Jahmel Morgan, pleaded guilty to the charges in March 2023 and is scheduled to be sentenced on July 10.
