JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 A man was found guilty in the shooting death of two men who were found killed inside a Fort Caroline Road apartment in 2023.<\/p>\n
Days after the deadly March 1, 2023, shooting, Darien Mixson was arrested and charged<\/a> with two counts of first-degree murder, armed burglary and grand theft.<\/p>\n On Wednesday, a jury found Mixson guilty on all counts.<\/p>\n The Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office said a witness inside the apartment called 911, and a family member told News4JAX when police arrived they found a man, identified by family as Craivon Aiken<\/a>, and another man dead.<\/p>\n Craig Aiken told News4JAX back in 2023 that since he found out that his son Craivon was killed, the days have been cloudy and he\u2019s had a hard time dealing with reality. He said it\u2019s hard knowing that one of his children is no longer with him, especially since just a few years before his son\u2019s death, he was reunited with his daughter Kamiyah Mobley, 18 years after she was kidnapped from a Jacksonville hospital right after her birth in 1998<\/a>.<\/p>\n Craig Aiken said Craivon Aiken was the youngest of eight children and left behind two of his own.<\/p>\n Aiken\u2019s father said the two victims were best friends who grew up together as well.<\/p>\n Mixson is set to be sentenced on April 27.<\/p>\n Copyright 2026 by WJXT News4JAX – All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 A man was found guilty in the shooting death of two men who were found…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":215168,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[265,116,118,117],"class_list":["post-215167","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville","tag-crime","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-headlines","tag-jacksonville-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215167"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215167\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/215168"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215167"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
