A Bangor woman has received a 10-year prison sentence after changing her plea in a fatal shooting case.
Olivia Babin, 21, who had previously pleaded not guilty to manslaughter and two other misdemeanor cases, changed her plea in court on Monday, according to WABI. On Monday, she pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the shooting death of Daniel Ford-Coates, 24, on April 2, 2024.
She will serve 10 years in prison, accompanied by six years of probation. She will also serve concurrent sentences for unrelated OUI and criminal mischief charges.
Audio from a surveillance video captured the moment prosecutors say Ford-Coates was fatally shot. A single gunshot can be heard on the video, followed by a woman yelling two expletives and saying “You’re not dead” multiple times, according to a video obtained by the New York Post. The woman can also be heard yelling “What do I do?”
The Maine attorney general’s office previously said it had audio from a surveillance video because a window was open in the apartment where the shooting happened.
