Md. Man Gets 15 Years For Ordering Hit On Teenager

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) -- A man who prosecutors say ordered the killing of a teenage girl has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

McDonald Abraham was sentenced in Prince George's County Circuit Court on Friday after pleading guilty to second-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

Prosecutors say Abraham, 27, put out a hit on 17-year-old Stacey Seaton because he believed that she was involved
in a burglary at his home. Seaton was shot in the back of the head, and she was found unconscious on June 1, 2005 behind a townhouse complex.
