York gets up to 50 years

WEBSTER SPRINGS, W.Va. — A Webster County woman will spend up to 50 years in prison for the deaths of three people in 2012.

A judge sentenced Amanda York, 28, on Friday to 15 years each for three convictions of voluntary mansalughter. She also received up to five years on a conviction of conspiracy to conceal a dead body.

York and her husband Michael York, 44, were convicted for the murders of Lamar Coates, Denise Coates, and Dustin Brown. The victims were shot dead in the Yorks’ yard in Webester County in June 2012 after a verbal dispute.

Last month, Michael York was sentenced to life in prison for the conviction.
