Teen Logan Mott sentenced to 15 years in prison for murder of grandmother

Jacksonville, FL — Logan Mott has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for murder of his own grandmother, the minimum sentence based on his plea agreement.

Mott pleaded guilty to second degree murder for the death of Kristina French shortly after Thanksgiving 2017.

Mott was 15 at the time he stabbed and shot French, then buried her in a shallow grave.  He was arrested in Buffalo, New York while attempting to cross to Canada. Mott's father and girlfriend reportedly returned home from a vacation and were not picked up at the airport by French as previously discussed. The couple took an Uber to the teen's father's Neptune Beach home and found it was ransacked and guns were taken from the gun safe.
