Man Gets Life Term In Delaware County Hospital Shooting
Police cars line the perimeter of Mercy-Fitzgerald Hospital on July 24,
2014, following reports of a shooting inside the hospital’s “Wellness Center.”
MEDIA, Pa. (AP) — A suburban Philadelphia man has been sentenced to life in prison in the shooting death of his caseworker and the wounding of his psychiatrist, who returned fire with his own gun to end the siege at a hospital complex last year.
Fifty-year-old Richard Plotts, of Upper Darby, pleaded guilty but mentally ill to first-degree murder, attempted murder and illegal possession of a firearm.
He was sentenced Friday in Delaware County Court to a mandatory life term on the murder count and an additional 15 to 30 years on the other counts.
