Patrick Shaun Macon was sentenced to 23 years and four months in state prison Thursday in the shooting death of 20-year-old Edward Griffin in San Bernardino.

Macon, 28, was convicted Sept. 8 of manslaughter and attempted manslaughter in the shooting. He faces about three decades in state prison if he is sentenced at the maximum term, according to prosecutors.

Of three defendants who went to trial in Griffin's death, Macon was the only one convicted of shooting the victim inside a vehicle at the intersection of Medical Center Drive and Ninth Street on Feb. 9, 2007.

The sentencing hearing for a man convicted in the deadly San Bernardino shooting of 20-year-old Eddie Griffin was postponed to Thursday, according to prosecutors.

Patrick Shaun Macon was set to be sentenced Tuesday in San Bernardino Superior Court, but Macon's lawyer, James Gass, was unavailable because he was in trial.

At a hearing in October, Gass told a judge that he wanted to respond in writing to a county Probation Department pre-sentencing report which recommended the maximum sentence for Macon. His client has no criminal record, Gass said.
