[00:00:00]My sweet baby boys.

[00:00:03]I know that today you don't want to speak to me, have a relationship with me, or you may think you hate me, and that's okay.

[00:00:10]I will never be angry at you for your feelings.

[00:00:13]When the day comes that you're ready, I will be here for you. I can beat myself up all day about how I could have been a better person or made better personal choices.

[00:00:25]And I can understand and accept you boys being upset about those things.

[00:00:32]But murder? No. Absolutely not.

[00:00:36]Please, do not create a possibility for Corey to endanger Eric's boys, my daughters, my family, or anyone else ever again. Please sentence Corey to a life in prison without the possibility of parole. A person convicted of those things is simply too dangerous to ever be free.

[00:00:59]Accordingly, Mr. Kitchens, based on your conviction on count one, first-degree felony aggravated murder, the court hereby sentences you to life without parole.
