A Winnipeg woman has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for her role in a random robbery and beating that killed a man.
Danyell Williams, who is 25, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the 2012 attack earlier this month.
Clarence Ross was killed by Williams' cousin, Devin Williams-Wapash, 22, who repeatedly hit him in the head with a steel bar.
Before they encountered Ross, Williams and Williams-Wapash hatched a plan to rob somebody.
They spotted Ross near a convenience store and followed him to a back lane, where they repeatedly hit him, then robbed him of money, cigarettes and other possessions.
Judge Rick Saull said Williams wasn't the one who inflicted the fatal injuries, but she "left him dead or dying on the cold pavement."
With the amount of time she's already spent in jail, her remaining time is just over 3 1/2 years.
Williams-Wapash pleaded guilty to second degree murder earlier this year and was handed a mandatory life sentence with no chance of parole for at least 10 years.
