Six men of a Bay County jury convicted Ronald Deon Lee

Six men of a Bay County jury convicted Ronald Deon Lee on Wednesday of breaking into
a Mexico Beach hotel room and battering two occupants.
Assistant State Attorney Rob Sale told jurors in his opening statement that Lee, 34, of
6620 Enzor St., made his way into a hotel room occupied by Scott Webb, Trent Webb and
Janice Williamson, from Eufaula, Ala., in the early morning hours of April 15, 2011. Williamson
awoke to find Lee, naked, on top of her trying to rape her. Her scream awoke Scott Webb who
fought Lee and detained him until police arrived, despite being bitten twice and having four of his
toes broken.
Sale said the evidence showed Lee had entered the room twice that morning. The first
time he took the couple’s cell phones and car keys back to his adjoining room. Lee then returned
and attempted the rape, despite the fact that the woman was sleeping in the same bed as Scott
Webb and Trent Webb, then 11, was in the other bed. Lee probably entered the victims’ room
the first time by climbing across the balconies.
Lee was found guilty as charged of burglary of an occupied dwelling with a battery. He
faces up to life in prison when Circuit Judge Michael Overstreet sentences him Feb. 4.
