After accepting a plea deal months back, Anthony Alvino received his sentence for his role in the hit-and-run death of UConn student Carlee Wines. Alvino will be spending the next 37 months in prison.
Alvino hit Wines with his SUV and then fled the scene back on January 20th, 2007. Wines died two days later from the injuries she suffered. Wines was only 19 years old and a freshman at UConn in Storrs, CT.
After Alvino hit Wines, he panicked and fled the scene on the advice of his girlfriend Michelle Hall. The next morning Hall asked the group to stay quiet as they made their way from the campus. Alvino eventually went home and his parents helped come up with a scheme to protect Alvino. They had been drinking at the time of the accident.
His parents were eventually charged with trying to cover up the investigation and will face charges in a New York court this year. Hall still awaits trial for her role in the hit-and-run.
