A woman convicted for the death of a Maries County man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Kelve’lina Fowler was arrested in Phelps County in April 2018 in connection with the deadly overdose of Dillon Barton.

Prosecutors charged Fowler with first-degree manslaughter and delivery of a controlled substance. She pleaded guilty to the charges last week.
