FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — The man behind the wheel of a fatal crash in northeast Fresno has learned how much time he will spend behind bars.

Ashcraft admitted he was using meth and was unlicensed at the time of the crash.

On Wednesday morning, he was sentenced to six years in prison for intoxication manslaughter.

His driving privileges were also suspended for life.
