Eight months after she pleaded guilty to helping murder Marisha Jeter, Yolanda Thompson will learn her fate Friday morning.

John Anthony, deputy solicitor with the 16th Circuit Solicitor’s Office, announced this afternoon that Thompson will be sentenced at 10 a.m. in the courtroom of the Union County Courthouse by Circuit Judge Lee Alford of York.

Thompson, along with her husband, Pernell Clayton Thompson Jr., pleaded guilty in March to the Jan. 3 slaying of Jeter, a 16-year-old Union County High School junior class president, cheerleader and honor student. Both pleaded guilty to kidnapping, armed robbery, criminal conspiracy and possessin of a knife during the commission of a violent crime.

Thompson’s husband, who also pleaded guilty to murder, was sentenced in September to life in prison without the possibility of parole, but she was only sentenced to five years in prison on the criminal conpsiracy charge. Alford delayed sentencing Thompson on the other charges until after her husband’s trial. As part of a plea agreement, Thompson agreed to testify against her husband. At the time of her sentencing, Thompson was given credit for the 14 months she’d already served in jail.

Anthony said since being sentenced in September on the conspiracy charge, Thompson has been incarcerated at the Leath Correctional Institute in Greenwood.
