 Convicted killer  
 gets 25 years 
 A Woodhaven man was sentenced  
 for murdering a Briarwood man in  
 a  drive-by  shooting  in  Richmond  
 Hill over fi  ve years ago, prosecutors  
 announced Tuesday. 
 Fol lowing  a  four-week  
 trial, Sherman Manning, 40, of 89th  
 Avenue was found guilty on May 16  
 of second-degree murder, criminal  
 possession of a weapon and menacing.  
 He was sentenced to an indeterminate  
 term of 25 years to life in prison plus  
 fi  ve years’ post-release supervision. 
 According  to  acting  District  
 Attorney  John  
 M.  Ryan,  this  
 sentencing followed  
 Manning’s  second  
 trial on the charges  
 – the fi  rst trial ended  
 in a mistrial. 
 “This was another  
 senseless  act  of  
 violence. A 20-yearold  
 man was killed,”  
 said acting DA Ryan.  
 “The  unsuspecting  
 victim  was  shot  once  in  the  head  
 and left   for dead in the streets of a  
 residential neighborhood in Queens.  
 The sentenced imposed today by the  
 court  is more  than warranted and  
 protects the residents of Queens from  
 this violent killer.” 
 According to trial testimony, at 5:11  
 a.m. on April 19, 2014, Manning was  
 Compiled by Emily Davenport 
 seen on surveillance footage driving  
 a white pickup truck in the vicinity  
 of  108th  Street  and  103rd  Avenue.  
 His vehicle was an arm’s length away  
 from the victim, 20-year-old Brendan  
 Santiago, who was riding a moped. 
 Manning  opened  fire,  shooting  
 Santiago once in the left   side of the  
 head. He then fl ed the scene, leaving  
 Santiago  to  die  
 in  the middle of  
 the  street.  EMS  
 responded  to  
 the location and  
 t ra n s p or t e d  
 Santiago  to  a  
 local  hospital,  
 where  he  was  
 p r o n o u n c e d  
 dead. 
 T r i a l  
 testimony  said  
 that a witness heard  the  fatal  shot,  
 looked  out  the  window  and  saw  
 Manning’s truck leaving the scene  
 of  the  crime  and  Santiago  in  the  
 roadway. Another witness testifi  ed  
 that Manning admitted to him that  
 he  shot  Santiago  because he was  a  
 competing drug dealer.
