The older sister of one of the teens charged in an arson that killed five family members in 2020 was sentenced Friday to more than a decade in prison for drug and weapons crimes.
In February Tanya Bui pleaded guilty in federal court to: possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime and possession with intent to distribute a mixture and substance containing a detectable amount of fentanyl.
She was sentenced in Denver Federal Court to five years on count one and 70 months for count two. The sentences will run consecutively for a total of about 10 years and 10 months.
