William Ingram sentenced to 30 to 64 years for brutal killing of his 82-year-old mother

A 51-year-old man was sentenced on Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2026, to 30 to 64 years in state prison for the June 2024 killing of his mother, 82-year-old Dolores Ingram, inside their Holland condominium. 

Common Pleas Judge Stephen A. Corr handed down the sentence to William Michael Ingram after Deputy District Attorney Monica Furber argued for a sentence in the aggravated range. Furber further requested that the counts be served consecutively, a request Judge Corr granted, citing the gravity of the crimes. 

During the hearing, Furber noted that the victim had dedicated a substantial part of her life to caring for the defendant. “Despite the care she gave him throughout his life, he repaid her by killing her,” Furber stated. 

The victim’s two daughters provided emotional impact statements, describing a woman who was a “kind, generous person” who “showed her love by being there for those around her.” One daughter told the court there were no words to fully describe the magnitude of the loss, while the other shared the personal toll of the tragedy, stating, “I’ve had nightmares about her last moments.” 

Before handing down the sentence, Judge Corr addressed Ingram directly, calling the homicide an “unspeakable crime” committed against a mother who never stopped supporting him. “She wasn’t giving up on you, but you gave up on her,” Judge Corr said.
