GAINESVILLE, Fla. – On November 20, an Alachua County Grand Jury issued an indictment against Terrell Nicholos Weeks, 19, for first-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a delinquent under the age of 24 for the murder of Tyren Certain on March 4, 2024, while Weeks was on probation in a previous case. He is also being held in connection with a March 2023 drive-by shooting at Linton Oaks when he was 17; a February 2024 shooting at Sweetwater Square, while he was on probation; and battery on another jail inmate.
Arrest at 17 for possession of a firearm leads to adult charges and probation
Weeks has juvenile convictions for battery by a person detained in a jail, disorderly conduct, and resisting an officer without violence; he was arrested again as a juvenile on May 18, 2023, when he was 17, and later charged as an adult with possession of a firearm by an adjudicated delinquent (a juvenile who has been convicted of a crime that would be a felony for an adult), possession of less than 20 grams of marijuana, resisting an officer without violence, and providing false identification information to law enforcement. That incident arose from a call about a stolen vehicle that was seen at The Polos Apartments.
