Twenty-year-old Matt Lee of Scranton pleaded guilty Thursday to conspiracy, accessory before armed robbery and accessory after murder. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison.

Eighteen-year-old Travis Carlton Lee of Scranton pleaded guilty to the same accessory charges and was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
