(KAIR)--More than 18-years in prison.
That's the sentence handed down Wednesday for the man previously convicted of a 15-year-old Atchison County murder but granted a new trial.
According to Atchison County District Court records, Kirk Wilson was sentenced to 221 months with the Kansas Department of Corrections, but was credited for time served.
His post release supervision was set at 36-months.
Wilson last month entered a plea of no contest to one count of voluntary manslaughter in Atchison County District Court as part of an amended complaint.
He was previously convicted of murder for the 2000 killing of Kurt Boldridge, who was shot in the head with a shotgun while he slept at his Atchison County home.
In 2013, a new trial was ordered for Wilson, based on what was cited as “ineffective counsel” at the time of his conviction.
