A homeless drifter faces sentencing today in the death of a Palm Beach Gardens teen.
The Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office is recommending a life prison sentence for Semmie Williams who was convicted of stabbing 14-year-old Ryan Rogers to death.
The second-degree murder verdict came down from a jury in January.
Rogers was riding his bicycle in November of 2021 when he had a chance encounter with Williams.
In its recommendation, the State Attorney's Office says that Williams is highly dangerous and poses a continuing threat to society.
A judge will hand down his sentence at today's hearing, which begins at 2:30 p.m.
