A Pittsburgh man has been sentenced to death for the murder of a law enforcement officer.
Sergeant Mark Baserman died after an inmate, Paul Kendrick, 30, assaulted him in 2018.
In March, Kendrick was found guilty of first-degree murder, as well as two counts each of aggravated assault and assault by a prisoner. On Thursday, jurors sentenced him to death.
When Kendrick attacked Baserman, he was already serving a life sentence for a 2014 homicide in Pittsburgh.
