   A man was sentenced to up to 16 years in prison on Thursday for   
   letting his 15-year-old daughter drive his SUV, which she   
   crashed in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains, killing three young   
   friends.   
      
   Michael Ware, 54, of Scarsdale, New York, pleaded guilty last   
   month to three counts of involuntary manslaughter as well as   
   three counts of reckless endangerment, one for each of the three   
   teens in the car who survived the 2014 crash, including his   
   daughter, Julia.   
      
   Ware, who had been free on bail, was taken into custody after he   
   was sentenced to 6-1/2 to 16 years in prison by Judge Raymond   
   Hamill in Wayne County Court of Common Pleas in Honesdale.   
      
   Ware had admitted to letting his daughter, who was not old   
   enough to have a driver's license, operate his Chevy Suburban   
   near his vacation home near Hamlin, Pennsylvania, on Aug. 30,   
   and then lying about it to the Pennsylvania State Police.   
      
   It was not the first time he had let her drive, prosecutors said.   
      
   "What's so troubling is not just that a young person ignored the   
   law, but that her parent did as well," Wayne County District   
   Attorney Janine Edwards said in a statement.   
      
   "Now there are three young lives lost, and six families forever   
   changed by one reckless and negligent father."   
      
   The three boys who died were classmates Cullen Keffer and Shamus   
   Digney, both 15 and from Holland, Pennsylvania, and Ryan Lesher,   
   also 15, of Churchville, Pennsylvania. They attended Council   
   Rock High School South outside Philadelphia. The teens were in   
   the Poconos because their parents vacationed there.   
      
   Julia Ware lives with her mother in Pleasantville, New York. She   
   was sentenced in May to perform community service, write letters   
   of apology to the three families, and pay $40,000 in   
   restitution. She was placed on probation until age 21.
