DETROIT (AP) — A handyman has been sentenced in the fatal stabbing of a 69-year-old Detroit-area interior designer.
The Wayne County prosecutor’s office says a judge on Tuesday ordered David Corzilius to spend 30 to 60 years in prison for second-degree murder.
Daniel Clancy of Grosse Pointe Farms suffered neck wounds in the March 6 attack. He died in late April.
Corzilius pleaded guilty to second-degree murder earlier this month. He told police that he became upset because Clancy had touched his buttocks the day before the stabbing.
Corzilius’ lawyer has said his client had a history of drug problems and mental health issues.
