Almost 90 Year Prison Sentence For Man Who Shot Woman, Tried To Have Witness Killed

YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) – A 41-year-old gang member has been sentenced to more than 88 years in prison for shooting a Wapato woman in 2017 and attempting to have a witness killed.

Michael Joseph Allred was accused of shooting a woman outside her home and ordering fellow gang members to burn down a witness’ home.

Last month a jury found Allred guilty of four counts of assault, attempted murder, attempted arson, witness tampering, felony harassment and unlawful firearms possession.

The witness who was the target of the attempted arson told the court she continues to live in fear and believes that she will eventually be killed.
