Teens Indicted For Premeditated Murder In Brutal Death of Girl, 14, In Santa Rosa County
December 20, 2025
Two Santa Rosa County teens will be tried as adults for the brutal murder of a 14-year old.
Gabriel Williams, 16, and Kimahri Blevins, 14, have both been indicted on charges of first-degree premeditated murder.
On December 1, 14-year-old Danika Troy was reported as a runaway after she was last seen on November 30.
The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office said they carried out a plan to shoot Troy and burn her body.
About 11 p.m. on December 2, the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office located a burned body in a wooded area off Kimberly Road in Pace. Due to the condition of the body, immediate identification could not be determined.
On December 3, 2025, while conducting further follow up interviews, investigators determined the body was that of Troy and developed Williams and Blevins as suspects. After interviews and examination of evidence, the teens were charged.
Williams and Blevins are currently being held without bail in the Santa Rosa County Jail.

Susie and PH , The God and Jesus that serve can and will forgive them if they repent and turn away from their sins.
You can’t give someone the death penalty for conviction of a crime they committed as a minor, regardless of whether or not they are tried as an adult. US Supreme Court, 2005, Roper vs Simmons in a 5-4 decision.
I pray the justice system will not let Troy and her family
friends and our community down . Never let these two heathens
see a moment of freedom again. We can punish them on earth but wait till God punishes them
I pray for comfort and healing for her family and peace .
Death penalty is not enough for these two. What lies beyond will be.
Our weak prosecutors will figure out a way to get these two off. They need a little Edison Medicine from old sparky.
As they should. You wanna act all big and bad, let’s see how the big world treats ya!
This is pure evil what these two did to this young girl. May justice be served and you two never see the light of day again!
@mnon….I stand right next to you on your comments! This was a cold pre meditated MURDER of a young lady who hurt their little feelings over her opinion of one/both. I know some will say “their brains haven’t fully matured” or they are “two young to be tried as adults or given the death penalty”…I SAY BC? They knew EXACTLY what they were doing and their brains were mature enough to try and cover up this crime…and evidence…by setting this young lady ablaze. Now, I will pray for them being as that’s just the way I’m wired. My biggest prayers are for this young lady’s family as they try and make sense of this all and in the days/months/years going forward. I just cant make this make any sense AT ALL as to kids doing this.
Good! Now seek the death penalty… no, idc if the parents of these monsters read this.
