“A 40-year sentence is the strongest accountability the law allows for manslaughter, and it’s appropriate for the devastating loss caused by the defendant’s actions. This was not a tragic accident – it was a deliberate act of violence that took an innocent man’s life. While no sentence can undo that harm, this ensures the defendant faces the full consequences of his choices,” said Chief of Violent Crimes Shaun George.
