Man to be sentenced for murdering a woman who was mistakenly driven up his rural New York driveway

FORT EDWARD, N.Y. (AP) — A man who fatally shot a 20-year-old woman when the SUV she was riding in mistakenly pulled into his rural driveway could face decades in prison at his sentencing. Sixty-six-year-old Kevin Monahan of Hebron, New York, faces a maximum sentence of 25 years to life for second-degree murder Friday. He was convicted in January for killing Kaylin Gillis last April. She was riding in a caravan of two cars and a motorcycle that pulled into Monahan’s long, winding driveway while her friends were looking for another person’s house. Monahan said the gun went off by accident and he thought his home was “under siege” by intruders.
