WARREN — The 11th District Court of Appeals has upheld the conviction and indefinite prison sentence of a Warren man found guilty of felonious assault with a firearm specification and domestic violence, according to the Trumbull County Prosecutor’s Office.

John L. Daniel Jr., 52, of Berkshire Drive, was sentenced in February to between nine years and nine months to 12 years and nine months by Trumbull County Common Pleas Judge Ronald J. Rice. The sentence includes a mandatory three-year term for using a firearm.

Daniel’s convictions stem from a June 2023 shooting that left a man shot five times.

According to prosecutors and the police report, Warren police were first to arrive at the scene. A woman directed him to her brother, who was lying in the yard with gunshot wounds to his arm and torso. Daniel was found applying pressure to the victim’s wounds and informed the officers that the gun was in a red wagon behind the apartment complex.

A jury acquitted him of a separate weapons charge after deliberating for less than two hours.

The appeals court rejected Daniel’s claims of trial errors and ruled there was sufficient evidence to support the jury’s verdict, prosecutors said.
