Army Sergeant Convicted of Attempted Murder in 2025 Shooting at Georgia's Fort Stewart

Prosecutors said Radford targeted leaders of his supply unit, and military law allows a life sentence for attempted murder.

  • On Thursday, a military judge convicted Sgt. Quornelius Radford of attempted murder following a court-martial at Fort Stewart, Georgia, for a shooting spree last summer that wounded five people.
  • During the August 28, 2025, incident, Radford wounded four soldiers and his fiancé, Raekwon Smith, after opening fire with a personal handgun at the military base.
  • Defense attorney Lt. Dylan Mack argued Radford was suicidal and sought a police confrontation, while prosecutors contended his military training meant he understood the lethal consequences of firing at others.
  • Sentencing is scheduled for Monday, where Radford faces a potential penalty of life imprisonment under military law for the attempted murder conviction.
  • Radford, who enlisted in the Army in 2018, served as a supply sergeant with the 3rd Infantry Division's 2nd Armored Brigade at Fort Stewart, located about 40 miles southwest of Savannah.
