ERIE, Pa. (AP) — A woman who was convicted of murder under a seldom-used state law for attacking her romantic rival and killing the teenager's fetus was sentenced to seven to 14 years in prison.
An Erie County jury convicted Corinne Wilcott, 21, in March of third-degree murder and assault in the June 8, 2002, attack on Sheena Carson, which resulted in the death of Carson's fetus.
Wilcott was sentenced Thursday. She could have faced a maximum 20 to 40 years in prison.
