Christina Korbe, who fatally shot an FBI agent during a drug raid in Pennsylvania, won’t be freed from prison early.
U.S. District Judge Terrence McVerry rejected her bid for early release, saying she agreed not to challenge her sentence when she pleaded guilty, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Korbe was sentenced to 15 years in prison for killing FBI Agent Sam Hicks when her home was raided for drugs at her Indiana Township home in 2008.
Her attorney requested the early release following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that ordered federal courts to re-examine sentences for offenders.
Korbe was convicted in 2011 of voluntary manslaughter and using a fund during a crime of violence. She was spared a life sentence for a murder a federal agent.
Korbe is eligible for release in 2022.
