Colborn of Dunmore, Pennsylvania, was sentenced on April 14, 2021, to 16 months imprisonment to be followed by a three-year term of supervised release by U.S. District Court Judge Robert D.

One minute, I was playing Atari that I got for Christmas and watching Little House on the Prairie that came on on Monday night, I kissed my father goodbye, and then the next minute I m kissing him on the operating table of a hospital. Cold. Dead, Macciocco said.
