NY woman who fatally shoved singing coach, age 87, is sentenced to more time in prison than expected
More time has been tacked onto an eight-year prison sentence for a New York woman who fatally shoved an 87-year-old Broadway singing coach.
A New York judge sentenced a woman who pleaded guilty to fatally shoving an 87-year-old Broadway singing coach onto a Manhattan sidewalk to six months more in prison than the eight years that had been previously reached in a plea deal.
You're viewing a single thread.
I mean, 8 years for premeditated murder seems kinda low to begin with. 8 years and six months doesn't seem like much of a difference.
She was charged with manslaughter. I'm not sure of the degree though. Manslaughter basically means you didn't intend to kill someone but you did
someonesomething reckless that resulted in someone's death. Premeditated murder is a completely different, and much more serious, charge."premeditated murder" is a bit of a stretch
