CHEMUNG COUNTY, N.Y. -- A man will spend more than seven years in prison for his role in a fire that killed a woman in Chemung County. Brion Peters was sentenced Friday after being convicted of second degree manslaughter.

Peters is one of two men involved in the death of Kanisha Wood, 20. Wood died when a meth lab exploded in a cabin in the Town of Baldwin last May.

Peters was sentenced to seven and a half to 15 years in prison for manslaughter, along with four years for unlawful manufacturing of methamphetamine. Those sentences will be served concurrently.

The other man involved in the fire, Gary Varlan, 52, pleaded guilty to manslaughter. He's scheduled to be sentenced on March 29th.
