BLOUNTVILLE, Tenn. (WJHL) — Megan Boswell has received an additional 33 years in addition to her life sentence, a decision that her attorney Gene Scott finds disappointing.

Scott argues that the added sentence goes against the jury’s verdict from February when Boswell was convicted on three counts of first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Evelyn, and sentenced to life in prison. Scott mentioned he requested Judge Jim Goodwin to allow her parole.

Scott also said Boswell has a right to maintain her innocence.

“Today, she wanted to express her feelings about the proceedings and convey, you know, that she didn’t kill Evelyn,” Scott stated. “I certainly worked hard to ensure Megan received a fair trial.”

William Harper, Deputy District Attorney, believes Boswell is trying to maintain something that does not exist.

“To observe her remain without any remorse after everything that has transpired is truly sad,” Harper commented.

Prosecutors at the hearing said Boswell’s treatment of Evelyn Boswell’s body was considered during her sentencing.

“She chose herself over her daughter,” prosecutor William Harper said.

Scott said he plans to file for a retrial.
