Case Summary

Painesville resident Lakeisha Jackson, 45, has been convicted of murder and other counts in connection with the death of Wyllyam Sheffey in Painesville in 2025 Jackson’s conviction comes nearly three weeks after Avion Gaines was also convicted of murder in Sheffey’s death. The verdict was delivered by a jury in the Lake County Common Pleas Court and posted on May 11. The jury found Jackson guilty of murder, complicity to murder, four counts of felonious assault and six counts of kidnapping. Each charge also carries a firearm specification, meaning the jury found she “had a firearm on or about her person or under her control while committing the offense.” She was found not guilty on two counts of complicity to aggravated murder.
