closeVictor Gamble, 21, will spend the rest of his life in prison for kidnapping, then stomping to death an 11-year-old boy in Sanford in 2004, according to a deal he reached with prosecutors this afternoon.
Bradley Way, a fifth-grader, was home alone when Gamble broke into his family's home looking for something to steal.
Gamble pleaded guilty this afternoon in Lee County Superior Court in a deal that spares him from the death penalty.
