Goshen woman gets 4 years for fatal shooting

Posted: Mon 3:13 PM, Jul 16, 2012

A Goshen woman was sentenced to four years in prison for her role in a deadly shooting earlier this year, according to reporting partners at the Elkhart Truth.

Elisa Horton, 22, pleaded guilty last month to a felony charge of assisting a criminal in connection with the murder of John Staub.

Her guilty plea placed a cap on the number of years she would be sentenced, and dropped a criminal gang enhancement charge.

Staub was shot and killed back in March after a fight near River and Chicago Avenues turned deadly. Three others were injured.

Horton admitted to driving three co-defendants to and from the scene that night.
