DEARBORN HEIGHTS (WXYZ) — "Let the conviction stick. Let him do his time," said Monica McBride whose 19-year-old daughter Renisha was shot and killed by Theodore Wafer in 2013.
"He had choices, but he chose to shoot her," said Renisha's father, Walter Ray Simmons.
The parents are hoping attorneys for the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office are successful when they deliver their oral arguments to the Michigan Supreme Court Thursday in hopes of keeping Wafer in prison for the rest of the 17 year sentence he received for Renisha's murder.
Wafer was convicted of second degree murder, manslaughter, and felony firearms. He and his attorney are seeking to have the conviction and sentence for manslaughter dropped, calling the two convictions that involve a death "double jeopardy."
"Mr. Wafer cannot be convicted and sentenced for two homicides in the death of one person," Attorney Jacqueline McCann wrote in her brief to the Michigan Supreme Court. "Manslaughter must be set aside, and the case remanded for resentencing on second-degree murder," she added.
