A Pulaski County Circuit judge on Friday sentenced a 35-year-old Brookland man who killed his wife in a drunken-driving crash to five years in prison despite pleas for probation by him, his family and friends.
26-year-old Jacksonville man Kevonce Lamont Ephriam was ordered Wednesday to spend the rest of his life in prison for capital murder in the death of his son.
Prosecutors can't prove a Jacksonville man murdered his infant son, the 26-year-old defendant's lawyer told a Pulaski County jury on Tuesday, describing the baby's death as accidental or, at worst, negligent.
