No one is safe!
WOWT:
A man sentenced to life in prison for murder was given a new sentence on Monday.
Fifty-three-year-old Kelvin Anderson was only 15-years-old when he shot and killed Robert McGinnis during a robbery near 10th and Bancroft in 1977. On Monday, Anderson was resentenced to 82-100 years and will be eligible for parole in three years. He will be eligible for release in 11-12 years.
Anderson had hope after serving 38 years of his life sentence. His attorney argued that Anderson had not intended to use the gun with McGinnis was murdered. He took a guilty plea to save his older brother from a life in prison or the electric chair.
Attorneys argued that Anderson was mentally low-functioning.
“I’m sorry for what happened when I was younger,” Anderson told the court on Monday. “I hope the court gives me a chance to prove myself in life.”
While the defense told the court that Anderson should be eligible for parole immediately or in the near future, the prosecution argued that he had been involved in other criminal activity and, at the time of the homicide, he had escaped from the Iowa juvenile system.
