VENTURA, Calif. -- The wife of a 1984 Olympic medalist was sentenced to a potential life sentence on Tuesday for shooting him in what she claimed was self-defense following years of abuse.Jane Laut, 59, was given two mandatory, consecutive prison terms of 25 years to life for first-degree murder and using a gun during the killing, the Ventura County Star reported (http://bit.ly/2bCNeUC ).She cried as her husbands relatives delivered victim impact statements, the paper reported.Laut was the high school sweetheart of David Laut, who won a bronze medal in the shot put at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. At the time of his death, the 52-year-old was athletic director at Hueneme High School in Oxnard.The Lauts were married for 29 years before he was shot to death in a yard of their Oxnard home shortly before midnight on Aug. 27, 2009.Lauts defense argued that she had been beaten and raped during the marriage and that on the night of the killing, her husband slammed her head against the wall and threatened her and their 10-year-old son with a revolver.Laut testified that her husband was shot as the couple struggled for the gun.In his opening statement, defense attorney Ron Bamieh told jurors that they were involved in a life-and-death struggle.He was trying to get up on his knees when she starts firing. ... There was no aiming, no looking, Bamieh said. If he gets up, she is done and Michael is done. He kept coming and he would not stop.The prosecution said that Laut was shot six times, including in the back of the head, with a gun that had to be cocked before each shot.Prosecutors also contended that Laut lied to police about the shooting and stood to gain $300,000 from her husbands insurance.The defense wants a judge to release Laut on bail while her sentence is appealed. Attorney Mark Hart, who will handle her appeal, said it could take a year or more to reach an appellate court.A hearing on the defenses bail motion is scheduled for next week.---Information from: Ventura County Star, http://venturacountystar.comYeezy Powerphase Ireland . -- Josh Sterk scored once and set up two more as the Oshawa Generals edged the visiting Belleville Bulls 3-2 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action.

But the cast will make it harder for him to play the way he likes. Norman practiced with the protective cast on his hand Thursday, and during the portion of practice open to the media, he clearly tried to limit using that hand.But he made it clear that hell play Sunday, even if it means having to take a shot to limit the pain. Norman initially injured his wrist in the season opener, but he aggravated it during the Ravens game and has been told its heavily sprained.I didnt think a hand injury would be that big. ... I use it so much, Norman said. Ninety-five percent of what I do is hand fights. So if you have one hand out of commission, its super hard. Playing with one hand and one hand at 80 percent? Geez.Norman likes to play physical with receivers, especially off the line. Because he plays on the left side, hell often use his right hand off the line to jam a receiver. This injury could impact that ability.Thats my game, Norman said. Its going to be interesting to see this week how that affects us. But its my game and getting that ball out wherever I can. I like to go to my right; thats my strong, dominant hand. So I guess have to be ambidextrous and go to the left and see if I cant make plays there. Thats what I love to do, man, go for that football. Thats my M.O.I have to rely on my athletic ability a lot. Wherever I can steal an inch here or there with my hands, Im gonna try.dddddddddddd I wont lie and say its easy because its not.Norman, the NFLs highest-paid corner at $15 million per year, is off to a strong start with Washington. He has snagged one interception, complemented by overall solid play. Norman said he doesnt want to take a week off to give his hand time to heal. If it requires a shot to play, then, Norman said, thats what hell do -- and has done in the past.We just have to fight through it and be tough, he said. Numb the pain out by going out there and fighting with my teammates regardless if I have to go out one-handed and get the ball out, thats what well have to do. Thats how it is. ... Just trying to win, any means necessary. If I can do that and have my concentration and dont worry about pain and hurts, then Ill be fine. That will carry me through. I dont live my life being slow at stuff. I go full speed, head-on and see what kind of collisions I can make.Meanwhile, Redskins tight end Jordan Reed was officially diagnosed with a concussion, which is at least the fifth diagnosed one of his career. However, Reed has admitted there might have been others. He suffered the injury during the Redskins win on Sunday but did not complain of any symptoms until his team returned for a walk-through Tuesday.He took a couple shots [in the game], but none that were alarming as far as we were concerned, coach Jay Gruden said.Reed remains in the concussion protocol, and Gruden said theres still a chance the tight end can play Sunday. Reed will see the independent doctor again Friday. ' ' '
