(AP) – A Marshall man convicted of killing a 21-year-old Sedalia woman has been sentenced to life in prison.
Nineteen-year-old Noah Kelliker was sentenced Tuesday for the death of Cassandra White at her home in a trailer park near Sedalia in January 2018. He was found guilty in January of second-degree murder. He also was sentenced to 15 years for unlawful use of a weapon and 15 years for armed criminal action. The sentences will run concurrently.
White’s body was found in her home with her baby on a couch beside her and her toddler in a bedroom. Neither child was physically injured.
The Sedalia Democrat reports defense attorney Scott McGreevy said Kelliker maintains his innocence and plans to appeal.
