Michigan Man Gets 30 Years For Killing Groomsman On Wedding Day
A Michigan man has been sentenced to at least 30 years in prison for the death of his groomsman. James Shirah, 24, was found guilty of second-degree murder, operating with a suspended license causing death, and failure to stop at an accident resulting in death. The incident occurred on the evening of his wedding day when Shirah, after an argument and having consumed alcohol, struck and killed his best friend, Terry Taylor Jr., with his SUV. Shirah and his wife, who is also facing charges as an accessory, left the scene and did not report the incident until the following day.
