SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (FOX 2) - A woman who left her friend behind to die in the middle of a Southfield road last year learned her sentence Friday.
Kentia Monique Fearn, 24, of Wayne, was sentenced to three months in the Oakland County Jail and three years of probation in connection with the death of Mia Kanu.
According to authorities, Fearn was driving on Providence Drive early June 3, 2023, after leaving a party when 23-year-old Kanu fell from the vehicle. Police said Fearn left the scene instead of stopping and reporting what happened to police.
Kanu was found in the road near Coach Apartments by a passerby. She was taken to a hospital, where she died a few days later.
Fearn was arrested months later and charged with leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death and operating while intoxicated. She pleaded no contest to those charges in October.
