“Matthew Cordle, the Ohio man who videotaped himself confessing to killing a man while he was driving drunk has been sentenced to 6 1/2 years in prison and a lifetime loss of driving privileges.
Cordle, 22, had pleaded guilty to killing Vincent Canzani of suburban Columbus in a wrong-way crash on June 22.
In his video, which has drawn more than 2 million hits on YouTube, Cordle says that although he may have been able to “get off” or “get a reduced sentence,” he didn’t want to “dishonor Vincent’s memory by lying about what happened.””.* Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Ben Mankiewicz and John Iadarola break it down on The Young Turks.
