BLOOD FEUD!

-

— and now faces spending the rest of his miserable life behind bars!

A Jefferson Parish jury found hothead Sly guilty of second-degree murder, which carries a mandatory life sentence, for killing Garland Webber, 57, in 2019.

According to authoritie­s, the silver-haired sicko had sparred with his victim for nearly four years before snuffing him out. Before the bloodbath, cops fielded multiple complaints from the grumbling guys, who repeatedly trashed each other.

In 2015, salty Sly accused Webber of cutting his lawn while wielding a shotgun. Court records show Webber pleaded guilty to aggravated assault for pointing a shotgun at Sly in 2017 and received a year’s probation.

In 2018, deputies responded to a scuffle that left both men with injuries — but neither charged with a crime. But their simmering blood feud boiled over in 2019 with a final dustup.

Prosecutor­s say during their last confrontat­ion Sly squeezed off four shots from his Smith & Wesson 9mm semiautoma­tic pistol and — as Webber lay bleeding on the ground from his bullet wounds — the murderer

reloaded and pumped two more slugs into his head!

Sly told responding officers he’d acted in self-defense as “menacing” Webber walked toward him while appearing to reach for a weapon in his waistband. He also told them he’d shot the victim in his head because “I wasn’t letting him come back on me.”

But lawmen didn’t buy Sly’s story and labeled him a coldbloode­d killer!
