Devandre Williams, 20, of Palm Coast, received a 55-year prison sentence on September 25 for his involvement in the 2022 murders of Noah Smith and Keymarion Hall. Williams pleaded guilty to two counts of Second Degree Murder and one count of Attempted Second Degree Murder.

Judge Terence Perkins handed down the sentence, with all charges running concurrently. Williams could be eligible for review after serving 15 years for Smith’s murder and 25 years for Hall’s.

“This dirtbag will spend a long-time in prison for his crimes,” said Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly. “I had promised the families of Noah and Keymarion that we would hold the killers accountable. While I know this can’t bring back their loved ones, I hope knowing the killers are receiving long prison sentences brings them a feeling of justice. This was a difficult investigation for the Major Case Unit. Detectives worked more than 2,500 hours investigating this case.”

Williams drove the car during the January 2022 shooting that killed 16-year-old Smith. He then fatally shot 16-year-old Hall near the same location in May 2022. Both investigations, initially handled by Bunnell Police, were later transferred to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office Major Case Unit.
