    From: The District Court of the Sixteenth Judicial District. County of Custer.
    STATE OF MONTANA, Plaintiff, vs. HAROLD DEAN WILLIAMS, Defendant.
    NO. 2204
    DATED this 9th day of July, 1970.
   DECISION

The application of the above-named defendant for a review of the sentence of 20 years with 245 days jail time credit for Murder in the Second, imposed on July 25, 1969, was fully heard and after a careful consideration of the entire matter it is decided that:

No change will be made in the sentence heretofore imposed.

This sentence seems sufficiently lenient considering that the defendant shot the decedent, a 16 year old girl, through the head with a .257 calibre Roberts rifle.

We thank Richard Llewellyn, Esq., of the Montana Defender Project for his assistance to the defendant and this Court.
