A Florida man was sentenced to nine months in jail after pleading guilty to urinating on two graves and destroying their tombstones.

Michael Gainer III, 21, was arrested in November months after the graves of Darryl Lundy Jr., 17, and Dari’one Flanigan, 18, were found damaged and vandalized. Both of their graves are in Jacksonville’s historic Restlawn Cemeteries and Cremation Gardens, also known as Restlawn Memorial Park. According to the arrest affidavit, Gainer became a suspect when he was caught spitting, damaging, and urinating on the tombstone in videos posted to his social media feed.
