A Beckley woman convicted of providing morphine pills which resulted in the death of a 21-year-old, was sentenced to one year in prison Monday in Raleigh County Circuit Court.

Upon completion of her jail term, Judge John Hutchison ordered that Underwood complete five years’ probation for a suspended sentence of one to 15 years for delivery of a controlled substance.
