A 32-year-old Texas man pleaded guilty to murdering a friend in 2022 after a basketball game and was sentenced to 20 years in prison in a plea deal.

The victims mother, Andrea Womack, called Cameron Hoggs sentence a slap in the face after he struck a deal with prosecutors before a trial was set to begin in the shooting death of her 21-year-old daughter, Asia Womack, KDFW-TV in Dallas reported .

Its a slap in the face because its pretty much saying that Asias life was only worth 20 years. Thats basically what theyre saying, Womacks mother told the TV station.

Dallas police officers responded to a report of a shooting on the night of Oct. 3, 2022, and found Womack on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds, according to a news release at the time .
