Amara Vadillo ( Sylvia Boots )

58 people wrote letters and signed a petition urging the judge to reduce the sentence to Involuntary Manslaughter, but Amara was sentenced to 20 years to life for Second Degree Murder and an additional 25 years to life under the anti-sniping law, and that she has to pay $10,000 restitution to Laura's family if ever released on parole.
In January 2006 it was rumored that Tanya died after an incompetent injection of oil/silicone. Some think that this was a hoax to enable Tanya to escape police attention. In either case her video career was over.
An appeal of Amara's sentence in October 2007 was denied.
Amara was initially at Donovan State Prison in San Diego, and is currently in the California Medical Facility prison at Vacaville.
