SIGOURNEY, IOWA (AP) -- A rural Sigourney man who pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of his father has been sentenced to two years in prison.
Thirty-two-year-old Kenneth E. Lundy was initially charged with voluntary manslaughter in the death of his father, Kenneth W. Lundy. The charge carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.
He was sentenced to the maximum charge for involuntary manslaughter on Monday in Keokuk County District Court.
