A year after Vincent Buckles was found shot to death inside his Vanness Street home, a judge has ruled the two people accused in his killing will face separate jury trials. Judge Michael West decided Tuesday that 37-year-old Sayon Florence and 23-year-old Dazman Drake can’t be tried together because each plans to blame the other. Investigators say Florence, Buckles’ former partner, told police she only meant to scare him, not have him killed. The separate trials could push back the April court date for at least one defendant.
