A Philadelphia judge Wednesday convicted a former Center City real estate agent of voluntary manslaughter in the 2017 shooting death of her boyfriend in her Fishtown apartment building.
Jeanette Wakefield, 38, did not testify at her trial, but previously admitted to police that she had fired the shot from her legally owned 9mm handgun that killed 33-year-old Terry Corrigan IV of Kensington.
