Stripper sentenced to 10 years prison in Ohio SUV dragging death

The Associated Press reports that an exotic dancer accused of killing her customer by running him over outside his home and then dragging him for a mile was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Kristina Hensley, 25, was given the maximum sentence in 31-year-old Jae Cho's death in August.

Hensley told police that Cho touched her inappropriately during a private show at his home and she got into her SUV to leave. Hensley said that the man then jumped in front of her SUV as she left and she didn't realize he was stuck underneath the vehicle as she kept driving.

Police told reporters that she drove about a mile to a gas station before she stopped.

She pleaded guilty in February to charges of involuntary manslaughter and failure to stop. She originally faced murder, aggravated robbery, theft and failure to stop charges but reached a deal with prosecutors to plead guilty to the lesser charges.

Hensley's attorneys told the judge in the case that she was the sole income provider for her three sons, ages 13, 8, and 7, and that she worked as a stripper due to economic hardship.

Was it intentional? Police want to know

Fort Worth police are investigating the death overnight of a 17-year-old boy as a possible homicide. At first officers thought it might have been a hit-and-run accident, but witness statements make them now think the boy was struck intentionally on Prairie Avenue near Rockwood Golf Course.
