    A woman has learned her fate after being convicted of hitting and killing a man who was walking his bike.

    Shay Dejonge was sentenced to two years in state prison.

    On November 5, 2021, 31-year-old Jimmy Slate Jr. was walking and pushing his bicycle on Avenue 144 when he was hit by Dejonge.

    She turned herself in a few days later on November 9.

    Dejonge's license was suspended at the time.

    The Tulare County District Attorney's office said they objected to the sentencing and argued for a longer punishment.
