A man who pleaded guilty in June to involuntary manslaughter just before he was set to be tried in the death of his Ohio bride-to-be has learned his fate.

John Carter, 36, was sentenced on Thursday to 36 months in prison for the death of Katelyn Markham, 21.

In an emotional victim impact statement, Markham’s father, Dave, told the court, “Not a day goes by that I don’t think of Katelyn,” local NBC affiliate WLWT reported.

“Let him feel the pain that many of us have endured for the past 13 years,” he said, the outlet reported.

Butler County Common Pleas Court Judge Daniel Haughey took the defendant to task, saying, “the court believes that Mr. Carter has shown no genuine remorse for this offense,” the Cincinnati Enquirer reported.
