Woman convicted in agent's death seeks release, citing virus
Pittsburgh, Pa (AP) — A western Pennsylvania woman, convicted in the shooting death of an FBI agent during a drug raid at her home a dozen years ago, is seeking release from prison, citing the coronavirus.
The Tribune-Review reports that Christina Korbe is currently scheduled for release in May 2022.
She was sentenced to 15 years on voluntary manslaughter and a firearms pleas in the November 2008 death of Special Agent Samuel Hicks.
Her attorney said she contracted COVID-19 in March and is still recovering, and notes that she will be eligible for release to a halfway house in less than a year.
The U.S. Attorney's office declined comment.
