A Syracuse man who ordered someone else to kill his ex's boyfriend was sentenced on Tuesday.

The Onondaga County DA's office says 33-year-old Jermaine Jennings will serve 25-years to life in prison.

Jennings was convicted of second degree murder in the death of 35-year-old Iric Green.

Green was murdered on McKinley Avenue in October of 2016. Authorities said Jennings told his cousin, Devar Williams, to kill Green.

Williams also faced 2nd-degree murder but was acquitted.
