RICHMOND, Ind. (AP) - A man apologized in court for fatally shooting another man at an eastern Indiana bar then heard a judge sentence him to 55 years in prison.
A Wayne County jury convicted 30-year-old Kenneth Frye of Richmond on murder charges last month for the November 2011 death of 33-year-old Percy Campbell from an argument over money that Campbell owed Frye.
The Palladium-Item reports a tearful Frye said during Thursday's court hearing that he was sorry for what happened and that Campbell was dead.
Frye's defense attorney had asked jurors to convict him of the lesser charge of reckless homicide because of disagreements among witnesses over what happened at the Alley Kat in downtown Richmond early Nov. 1 as the bar held a Halloween party.
