Alissa L. Townsend, 49, of St. Marys, is led away from court Friday morning after being sentenced to seven years in prison for driving drunk and killing a Wapakoneta woman in November. Townsend had a blood-alcohol level four times above the legal limit when she rammed her car into an SUV on U.S. 33, killing the driver, 40-year-old Heather Schaub, and injuring Schaub's 3-year-old son.
