Found guilty by a jury on July 15, Christopher Kozo, 24, was sentenced by judge Leonard Zito for the drunk driving accident that killed four men in March of 2004.

According to prosecutors, Kozo drank about 10 to 12 beers before the accident occurred.

He then crashed into the car occupied by the four men after failing to stop at a stop sign. Joseph Azar, Danny Khalouf, Joseph Nimeh, and George Elias were all killed.

At the sentencing, Kozo apologized to the victims' families and asked for their forgiveness.
