The man who stabbed the step-granddaughter of Morgan Freeman 25 times in front of eyewitnesses has been sentenced to 20 years in prison with an additional five years of post-release supervision.
Lamar Davenport, 33, was convicted of manslaughter in the first degree in May of last year for the fatal attack on 33-year-old E’Dena Hines, who was his girlfriend at the time.
Davenport had been initially charged with murder in the second-degree, but the defense argued he had been in a drug-induced psychosis during the brutal slaying, brought on by his use of PCP.
According to Mailonline , One man who witnessed the attack testified at the trial that during the attack Davenport screamed: ‘I love you. I always loved you. God would have wanted this.’
After he was arrested, Davenport was taken to a hospital where after he was given sedatives he awoke screaming; ‘Why did this happen? No, no! Why God?’
Hines and Davenport, a rapper, had been living together in a $780,000 apartment that was paid for by Freeman.
