    Florida Supreme Court affirms death penalty for Jonathan Alcegaire in 2016 Lakeland triple-murder

    The Florida Supreme Court last week affirmed the conviction and death penalty for Jonathan Ishmael Alcegaire, 32 of Miami, who is on death row for his role in the murders of 3 Lakeland residents in a January 2016 drug-related home invasion.

    Alcegaire was convicted in September 2018 for the execution-style slayings of David Washington, 24, Stacy Branch, 31, and Angelica Castro, 23. Felix Campos was also shot during the home invasion and later testified as a witness in Alcegaire’s trial.

    Alcegaire drove to Lakeland with Jamaal John Smith, 30, and another man in the early morning hours of Jan. 6, 2016, and charged into Washington’s home demanding money. Prosecutors said Washington was buying drugs from the men and had just gotten back from a Miami trip that morning.

    Jamaal John Smith was sentenced to mandatory life imprisonment

    Smith is accused of being the gunman, and prosecutors were seeking the death penalty for his role in the killings. But in February 2020, jurors failed to reach a unanimous decision to recommend a death sentence. Smith was sentenced to mandatory life imprisonment.

    During his trial, Alcegaire’s defense lawyers argued that he had come along on the ride from Miami only to visit friends in Lakeland.

    In September 2018, the 8 women and 3 men on the jury deliberated nearly 6 hours over 2 days before finding him guilty on the 3 1st-degree murder charges and the other related charges. The next day, the same jury deliberated 90 minutes before unanimously recommending death.

    On March 8, 2019, Circuit Judge Jalal Harb ruled that Alcegaire would go to Florida’s death row.

    Alcegaire, who refused to offer a defense in his death penalty phase, spoke up at the sentencing.

    “I have been wrongfully convicted, so all of you that want my life are wrong,” Alcegaire said. “To the prosecution: Y’all the killers. You all are the ones guilty of murder, and perjury, and robbery, and home wrecking. To the families of the departed: You all were here the whole trial and know the state did not prove the case against me, but your hunger for vengeance blinded you to all the facts.”

    Last week, the Supreme Court said Alcegaire’s convictions are supported by competent and substantial evidence.
