NEW YORK (AP) - The girlfriend of the mugger who fatally shot an aspiring actress and playwright was sentenced Thursday to six years in prison for robbery.
Before Ashley Evans, 18, was sentenced, the mother of actress Nicole duFresne described the "unimaginable" agony of losing a child. Evans then apologized to duFresne's family and fiance, Jeffrey Sparks, who were in the courtroom.
State Supreme Court Justice Daniel FitzGerald sentenced Evans as part of a deal in which she pleaded guilty to first-degree robbery. The deal requires five years of post-release supervision.
