After hours of statements from the families of the two officers, a Las Vegas judge gave Jemarcus Williams the maximum sentence possible for killing Nevada Highway Patrol Sgt. Michael Abbate and trooper Alberto Felix while driving in the early hours of Nov. 30 : between 16 and 40 years.
Williams, 46, who appeared before Judge Susan Johnson after pleading guilty in April to two counts of DUI resulting in death, said he regrets getting behind the wheel, the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
