Michael George Gets Life In Prison

The prominent retailer and convention organizer Michael George, convicted earlier this year of the 1990 slaying of his then-wife Barbara in their Michigan comic book store and of charges related to that crime, will have his sentencing hearing today. Family members of the victim are expected to address the court and George.

Update: Michael George received life in prison at his sentencing today, and maintained his innocence. After losing a motion to set the verdict aside, it is widely believed that Mr. George will pursue an appeal.
