As part of the plea deal, Urvizo-Hanlon will serve an agreed upon sentence of a 2 year determinate prison sentence with 1 1/2-3 years post release supervision. Post release is at the discretion of the court and she will no longer be able to have a pistol permit and any weapon she currently has must be forfeited. The conviction makes it unlawful for her to own a gun.

Samuel Blackshear was sentenced to the minimum, 3 1/2 years in state prison and 2 1/2 years post release supervision in Genesee County Court in March of 2019.

In November, Blackshear pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a weapon 2nd, a class C felony, in satisfaction of a four count indictment that was handed up in May of 2019

Urvizo-Hanlon will re-appear in court for sentencing on July 12, 2019 at 1:30p.m.
