Teen gets 5-10 years for raping dying classmate

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - May 14, 2010

Nineteen-year-old Juan Williams was sentenced Thursday in the March 2008 death of 15-year-old Kierra Johnson.

Police say Williams, then 17, and another teen skipped school with Johnson and spent the day drinking at Williams' home. Prosecutors say Williams and 18-year-old Shareef Clemons took turns raping the girl after she passed out.

Johnson's body was discovered the next day. Investigators say her blood-alcohol level was .433 when she died.

Williams pleaded guilty in February. Clemons pleaded guilty last month and will be sentenced in July.
