Reginald Jackson, 40, and Roderick Martin, 39, were charged in the murders of 70-year-old Annette Anderson and 20-year-old Tyrone Walker Jr. in Miami Gardens.

Jackson will get 40 years in prison, while Martin will get 25.

Jackson had had an expletive-laden outburst in court during a previous hearing, claiming he was upset that his family wasn’t in the courtroom for him to accept the plea deal.

A motive for the crime remains unclear. Jackson’s attorney said he never told him.
