Man Who Accidentally Shot & Killed 5-year-old Girl Sentenced Today

Jon Andrew Meyer Jr. will spend the next six years in jail, a judge handed-down his sentence today.

Back in June he leaned on his gun to get up off the couch, a bullet went through the roof killing 5-year-old Alysa Bobbit.

The girl’s family and Meyer took turns speaking in court, an emotional day for all involved.

NBC 5’s Craig Smullin has the story.
