Three-year sentence in James Green death

Motorist Orlando Gentry has received a three year prison sentence after pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter of James Green.  Gentry ran over Gentry at 39th and 71 Hwy on November 14th, 2008. Unfortunately, the Star chooses to use the word “accident” its headline, even though crash was obviously avoidable.
