HUTCHINSON, Kan. - A 33-year-old man will likely spend life in prison for the murder of a Hutchinson wife and mother in what prosecutors called a case of mistaken identity.
Charles Logsdon was removed from the courtroom during Friday's sentencing while yelling that he was "completely innocent."
Logsdon was convicted last month of first-degree murder and four other charges in the June 2011 death of 27-year-old Jennifer Heckel. The victim was shot multiple times inside her Hutchinson home as her 5-year-old son watched the Disney Channel in another room.
Prosecutors said Heckel was shot by someone who entered her home by mistake and that the real target was a 25-year-old methamphetamine dealer.
Another defendant, 50-year-old Billy Joe Craig Junior, still faces trial.
