NORFOLK, Va. – A man was sentenced to six years in prison for a DUI crash that resulted in an EVMS student’s life being taken.
Thomas Walters was sentenced Thursday after pleading guilty in February.
Walters was convicted on one count of Aggravated Involuntary Manslaughter and one count of DUI for the fatal crash that happened on April 23, 2016.
