A woman who was with a man when he killed Washington State Patrol trooper Tony Radulescu was sentenced Tuesday to a year in jail.
Megan Mollet, 19, was sentenced in Port Orchard. She was convicted last month of rendering criminal assistance.
Kitsap County prosecutors had asked for a two-year sentence.
With credit for time served, Mollet could be out of prison in nine months.
She was riding with Joshua Blake when he was pulled over Feb. 23 on state Route 16 near Gorst. Blake shot Radulescu and fled. Blake later shot and killed himself.
Of six people accused of criminal assistant or interfering with police in the case, five have pleaded guilty or been convicted, and one awaits trial.
