Man Sentenced In Huntington Shooting
WEST VIRGINIA....
After denying three defense motions, which sought post-conviction home confinement, a withdraw of a guilty plea and a delay in sentencing, Friday, Cabell County Circuit Judge Dan O’Hanlon sentenced Wilbert Shaver to a 40-year prison sentence. Shaver was accused of shooting Sparkle Wade in the 2000 block of 11th Avenue in Huntington in September 2007. Wade has mental issues and needs physical therapy after receiving multiple gunshot wounds. A December 2009 plea agreement led to convictions for malicious wounding and first-degree robbery.
