CLINTON COUNTY -- A woman from Clinton County who murdered an elderly man back in 2003 is no longer on death row.

A Clinton County judge ruled last month that Shonda Walter had inadequate legal representation in her trial.

Walter killed an 83-year-old World War Two veteran in Lock Haven. Prosecutors said, at the time, Walker was being initiated into a street gang.

There is still a moratorium on the death penalty in Pennsylvania. Walker was the only woman on death row in the state.

But now, Walker has been re-sentenced to life in prison.
