Tammy Sytch has been sent to prison<\/p>\n
\nThe former WWE star has been handed a ten-and-a-half-year sentence for driving with a suspended license and a further seven years for DUI manslaughter.<\/p>\n
\nSytch, 50 – who rose to stardom in the 90s and was inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011 – will also serve eight years of probation following her release from prison.<\/p>\n
\nSytch previously pleaded no contest to the counts levelled against her and she actually addressed the victim’s family during her latest court appearance.<\/p>\n
\nAccording to TMZ, she said in the courtroom: “I know my words are not enough but please know that I think about you every day.”<\/p>\n
\nSytch – who went by the name of Sunny during her wrestling days – also broke down in tears during her court appearance.<\/p>\n
\nSytch faced a maximum of 26 years in prison. The former wrestling star was arrested in May 2022, after a 75-year-old man was killed in a collision in Florida.<\/p>\n
\nOfficials assigned to the case alleged that Sytch had a blood alcohol level of .08 or higher.<\/p>\n
\nShe initially received bond in the case. But just days later, she was sent to prison after prosecutors determined that she was too much of a risk to the community.<\/p>\n
\nA judge said at the time: “The defendant is a threat to the community and I do not feel that a monitor would protect the community.”<\/p>\n
\nIn July 2020, Sytch was arrested on charges of eluding a police officer, violating a domestic violence restraining order and operating a vehicle during a second license suspension.<\/p>\n
\nShe was released from prison 11 months later.<\/p>\n
\nSytch subsequently told WrestleZone.com: “I am happy to be finished with my sentence and I am anxious to start the next chapter of my life.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
