He’ll be sentenced on Oct. 25.

Shaw and his brother, Darryl Cleary, 58, were previously arrested and charged in connection to a shooting that happened Jan. 4, 2022 on Randolph Street in Dayton. The shooting killed Darryl Dean, 62, and Marty Powers, 29.

News Center 7 previously reported that police said Cleary admitted to shooting Powers after Powers hit Cleary in the face.

Court records showed that Dean was at the bottom of the stairs at the time of the shooting. The affidavit showed Shaw then exited the house and began shooting at Dean, who was getting into the driver’s seat of his car.
