Wafer was accused of  McBride, 19, when she emerged on his front porch early morning on November 4, last year.
+
−
It was about 4:40 AM when McBride made her way onto the Wafer鈥檚 front porch. Wafer said that McBride aggressively pounded on both the front and side doors of <a href=http://www.radiorcs.com/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-Gwen>Kate Spade Gwen</a>  his home. Fearing that the loud sounds were made by home invaders, he unlocked his front door and shot McBride through the screen door.

Wafer was convicted last month at the end of a nine-day trial, which focused on whether the 55-year old man had an honest and reasonable belief that his safety was threatened.
+
−
In his testimony, he mentioned that he was asleep before Mcbride arrived and was awakened by the loud banging on his door. He claimed to have shot Mcbride because he was afraid for his safety. He also claimed during trial that he didn鈥檛 know his shotgun was loaded and he never meant to kill Mcbride. The jury rejected his self-defense claim.

−
It is not known as to why McBride ended up at the Wafer residence that fateful morning. Prosecutors speculate that she may have been seeking help. Her car聽had apparently struck another car several blocks away and she had fled the scene. Autopsy reports showed that she <a href=http://www.radiorcs.com/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-Outlet-Buffalo>Kate Spade Outlet Buffalo</a>  had an聽alcohol level of .21 and  in her system.

−
Wafer was convicted of second-degree murder 鈥?which meant that the jury believed that he intentionally killed McBride. He was also found guilty of manslaughter.
+
−
He received a minimum of fifteen years for the second degree murder charge, overriding the 7 to 15 year punishment for manslaughter. He was also convicted for unlawful use of a firearm and was sentenced two years for that charge.
+
−
The court room was fraught with emotions. Defense attorney Cheryl Carpenter asked for a minimum of six years in prison. Considering Wafer鈥檚 age 鈥?55 鈥?she argued anything more than <a href=http://www.radiorcs.com/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-Leather-Bag>Kate Spade Leather Bag</a>  10 years in prison was tantamount to a life sentence.

−
Wafer also spoke during the trial, issuing聽an emotional apology to McBride鈥檚 family. He said that he had taken away the life of a woman who was too young to die, and that he would 鈥渃arry that guilt and sorrow forever.鈥?

−
While race was hardly mentioned in the trial, many people speculate that it might have played a hand in聽the case. McBride was black and Wafer is white, and many wonder if race was indeed a factor.
