The sentence will be served in addition to the 12-year prison term Wardlow is currently serving for attempted murder, two counts of aggravated robbery and having weapons under disability for crimes committed in Hamilton County, according to court records.
Jayson Brown, 29, of Maple Avenue in Hamilton and Corey White, 23, of Cincinnati, also pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter earlier this year and received 13 years behind bars.
The trio went to Denmark’s house on the night of Dec. 14, 2009, with the intention of robbing him and Denmark was shot dead, according to prosecutors. The crime went unsolved for years until White’s fingerprint was run through a database for juvenile offenders and turned up a match.
