Trigger man sentenced in murder plot |
|||||
HONESDALE – Cody Steich will serve 15 to 30 years in state prison for his role in a plot involving the wife and daughter of a man shot to death over a year ago. Steich, 22, received the same sentence as did his girlfriend, Clarissa Luyster, 18, who was sentenced yesterday. The third person in the plot, Patricia Luyster, whose husband Ronald was shot to death in his driveway in April 2007, was sentenced earlier this year. Patricia could spend up to 34 years in prison. The three defendants avoided first degree murder charges and possible life sentences based on defense claims that Ronald Luyster subjected his family members to a lifetime of abuse. |
