A sentence has been handed down in the hit-and-run slaying of MMA fighter Ryan Jimmo.
Anthony Getschel, 26, will serve eight years in prison for striking Jimmo with his truck back in June 2016, an incident that resulted in the fighter’s death shortly after. The verdict was announced Monday, per the Edmonton Journal.
Following a guilty plea that was submitted on Nov. 26, Getschel appeared in court Monday where he was sentenced to six years in prison for manslaughter and two years for fleeing the scene of the crime. He will also be banned from driving for eight years after his time has been served.
