MONTROSE — A 14-year-old boy accused of slashing the throat of a Montrose High School student has received seven years in a youth corrections facility and a suspended prison sentence.
Michael Yates, who was charged as an adult, pleaded guilty in March to first-degree attempted murder in the Nov. 11 attack that wounded 17-year- old Mallory Haulman.
In court, Yates apologized to his victim, who attended the hearing.
“I know what I did was wrong, and I’m sorry,” he said.
