Sydney Powell, a 23-year-old Akron woman who was recently found guilty in the murder of her own mother, has been sentenced to 15 years to life in prison.

Thursday’s sentencing comes after a jury found Powell guilty of the following charges last week:

– Two counts of murder (special felonies)
– Felonious assault (felony of the second degree)
– Tampering with evidence (felony of the third degree)

The murder dates back to March of 2020 when Powell struck her 50-year-old mother, Brenda, in the head with an iron skillet before stabbing her nearly 30 times in the neck.

Powell, who was seen crying during the sentencing hearing, did not speak when given the opportunity.

“I have advised Miss Powell that given the nature of our appeal she should not make a statement today,” an attorney told Judge McLaughlin.
