NORTHAMPTON (AP) — A woman who was pregnant when she lured a Huntington man out of his home by saying she was having car trouble so two friends could beat and rob him has been sentenced to a year in jail.
Nicole Bouley, and one of the men who used a crowbar to beat Joseph Florence on Jan. 11, were sentenced yesterday in Hampshire Superior Court.
The Daily Hampshire Gazette reports that Andrew Przybyla, was sentenced to up to nine years in prison.
Louis Catjakis pleaded guilty yesterday to related charges and will be sentenced in January.
Bouley was four months pregnant when she asked the 62-year-old Florence for help.
Florence was beaten with a crowbar, handcuffed and had a pellet gun held to his head. He suffered a broken arm and other injuries.
