MANSLAUGHT­ER MISTAKE:

-

A judge said she is “trying to get to the bottom” of why a Detroit man has not been sentenced for manslaught­er, six years after he pleaded no contest to the charge. Leroy Moon, now 78, has been free on bond since his plea in 2011, although his deal with prosecutor­s called for a year in jail. There is no indication that he has been in any additional trouble. Judge Cynthia Gray Hathaway ordered Moon to jail on Monday while she awaits a pre-sentence report on what he has been doing since 2011. He will be sentenced on January 31.
