Gang member sentenced to life in prison for murder
DAYTON - A man Dayton police called a violent, cold-blooded killer and known Dayton View Hustlers gang member was sentenced to life in prison Tuesday, Nov. 24, for the murder of Isaac “Quan” Gibson.
Theron “T. Streets” Lewis will be eligible for parole in 28 years, after Montgomery County Judge Frances McGee handed down her sentence. Lewis was convicted of murdering Gibson on Oct. 30 after jury deliberations lasted less than one day.
County prosecutors said Lewis, 24, and Keith Watson, both members of DVH, were involved in an argument with Gibson, 25, at a cookout in honor of homicide victim Thomas “Tom-Tom” Watson.
A fight ensued and Lewis shot and killed Gibson, police said.
Tom-Tom Watson, 25, was a high-ranking member of the DVH gang when he was gunned down in broad daylight on a basketball court in College Hill Park in April. Chamare Mays is awaiting trial in that case.
Lewis still faces charges for shooting at mourners filing out of a church in May after funeral services were held for Raymond “Byrd” McDaniel. McDaniel was killed days before in a gang-related attack outside apartments in the 1800 block of North James H. McGee Boulevard.
Gibson’s family maintains he is not a member of any gang, though police said he was a member of 100 Block Boyz.
