Former NBA Star Sentenced To Five Years In Prison For Shooting

Serves him right!

This morning, former New Jersey Nets star Jayson Williams was sentenced to five years in prison for shooting his limo driver in 2002.

After pleading to a lesser charge, Jayson was found guilty of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and four other charges of attempting to cover up the fatal shooting. It has yet to be decided where Jayson will fulfill in his five years.

Seems like a small, but significant victory for the family of Costas “Gus” Christof, who Jayson killed while screwing around with a shotgun.

Very sad.
