Othal Wallace was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the death of the officer.

In September, a Clay County jury found Wallace guilty of manslaughter.

Wallace shot and killed Officer Jason Raynor in June 2021.

Because he was not convicted of murder, Wallace does not face the death penalty.

Instead, he will spend no more than 30 years in prison.

Channel 9 will have a crew inside of the courtroom and will provide updates on Eyewitness News.
