Man Sentenced for Fatal Hit-and-Run | Durham News

from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Robert Brad Williams just got a brutal 8-to-10-year federal sentence for a fatal hit-and-run that killed 24-year-old mother Kortney Summer Atkins in 2024. Admitting guilt to involuntary manslaughter and felony hit-and-run, Williams was slapped with the “habitual felon” label, escalating his punishment to 96 to 128 months behind bars. District Attorney Jason Waller called the verdict justice, though he acknowledged no sentence can undo the tragedy. The family’s grief lingers — a sobering reminder of how one reckless moment can shatter lives forever. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
