Polson woman sentenced for crash that killed boyfriend
Missoula County District Court Judge Robert “Dusty” Deschamps started a Thursday sentencing by saying he would not follow the plea agreement in the case.
He called the prosecution’s sentence request for a woman who killed her boyfriend in a crash while driving after smoking marijuana “beyond the realm of reasonableness.”
Trai Ann Dewey pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide in September under a plea agreement that called for a 30-year sentence to the Department of Corrections with 25 years suspended, a punishment Chief Deputy County Attorney Jason Marks said was in line with other similar cases in Missoula.
