LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18)– The sentencing for the four men convicted in connection to the death of Trinity Gay has been postponed until a later date.

The new date has been scheduled for December 19. The judge wants more time to go through the documents in the case.

The daughter of Olympian and Lexington native Tyson Gay was shot to death in Lexington in 2016.

Last month, a jury recommended the minimum of 20 years for Chaz Taylor for his wanton murder and four wanton endangerment charges.

Taylor’s son D’Markeo was recommended 15 months, and Lamonte Williams got one of a possible 25 years.

The jury recommended 15 years for D’Vonta Middlebrooks because jurors found him to be a persistent felony offender.
