LANCASTER, Pa. - A central Pennsylvania funeral director has been sentenced to life in prison for murdering his wife.
Michael Roseboro was sentenced Friday in Lancaster County Court for killing his wife in the swimming pool behind their Reinholds home in July 2008.
The 42-year-old Roseboro had been director of his family's funeral business. He was convicted of first-degree murder two months ago.
Authorities say he wanted to be with his mistress without a messy divorce.
Before Judge James Cullen imposed the mandatory life sentence, Roseboro said he disagreed with the jury's verdict.
District Attorney Craig Stedman described the murder of Jan Roseboro, a 45-year-old mother of four children, as "selfish and senseless."
