She was also found guilty of criminal recklessness, a level 6 felony; and guilty of passing a school bus causing injury with stop arm extended, a class A misdemeanor.
For each reckless homicide count, Shepherd was sentenced to one year in prison, one year of house arrest and one year of probation.
Shepherd was also sentenced to one year in prison for each of the other two charges, and that time will be served concurrently for a total of one additional year.
