The man responsible for a triple shooting that paralyzed a young woman during an attempted drug robbery earlier this year was sentenced Wednesday to serve up to 7½ years in state prison.
Terence D. Bradley, 20, of Wilkes-Barre, previously pleaded guilty to a felony count of aggravated assault in the Feb. 12 shooting that injured Nichole Santiago, 20, and Alanah Sobrinski, 19, both of Scranton, as well as Miles Singleton, 20, of Moosic. Santiago was paralyzed from the waist down, according to her family.
Luzerne County Judge David W. Lupas on Wednesday sentenced Bradley to 38 to 90 months in prison for the assault as well as for two unrelated robbery cases filed when Bradley was a minor.
According to prosecutors, Santiago, Sobrinski and Singleton — along with two minors — had come to
Wilkes-Barre from Lackawanna County with the plan of ripping off a marijuana dealer.
They met up with Bradley, leading to a dispute that ended with Bradley firing into their car, according to prosecutors.
Singleton was treated for a gunshot wound to the leg and Sobrinski was treated and released from a hospital. But Santiago will be paralyzed for life, her mother has said.
In addition to his time in prison, Bradley will be required to pay $26,078 in restitution to Sobrinski and $773 to Santiago, Lupas ordered.
Bradley was remanded to serve his sentence, receiving credit for 261 days time served.
