HOPKINS CO, KY (WFIE) – A Hopkins County man is sentenced to eight years in prison for a hit and run death.
Court officials say 33-year-old John Hamilton pleaded guilty to second degree manslaughter and wanton endangerment.
Officials say the sentence will begin after Hamilton serves out a one-year sentence for theft that began in April 2010.
Authorities say Hamilton was intoxicated when he struck and killed 18-year-old Julia Wooten in September of 2009.
