Colegrove Gets Three Life Sentences
A man convicted of killing three of his family members has been sentenced to three life sentences in state prison.
32-year-old Steven Colegrove was convicted last month of shooting his parents and brother in August of 2007 near Towanda.
District Attorney Daniel Barrett had sought the death penalty but the jury could not come to an agreement on whether Colegrove deserved death by lethal injection or life in prison with no parole.
When a jury can't decide, the judge imposes a sentence of life in prison.
Prosecutors say Colegrove killed his family members to get inheritance money.
