Nine Year Sentence in Sisk Slaying Case

James W Graninger was sentenced to nine years in the state penitentiary in Frederick County Circuit Court for the shooting death of Jesse James Sisk on the Southern States parking lot. He pleaded guilty to manslaughter after changing from murder in January. Graninger said a confrontation with three men in his van led him to use a shotgun. Orndorff testified differently, saying Graninger fired during an argument. Sisk died the day after the incident.
