Linda Frickey’s family feels justice was served after 18-year-old John Honore was found guilty of second-degree murder by a unanimous jury on Monday. Three other teens charged in the 2022 carjacking death pleaded guilty last week to attempted manslaughter in exchange for 20-year sentences. Frickey’s sister-in-law, Kathy Richard says Honore should serve the maximum possible punishment of life in prison if convicted and she hopes the memory of that horrific day lives with him forever.
Honore could possibly be up for parole in 25 years.
