MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — A man has been sentenced to four to eight years in prison after pleading guilty to negligent homicide in a car crash that killed his passenger in New Hampshire.
WMUR-TV reports Matthew Pittman, of Quincy, Massachusetts, pleaded guilty and apologized in court Monday regarding the death of 19-year-old Molly Rockwell.
She was ejected from his car in Derry in November. The 20-year-old Pittman said he always thinks about her.
