Baby Gabriel's Mom Sentenced to Prison
PHOENIX (AP) -- An Arizona woman who was convicted in her young son's disappearance nearly three years ago has been sentenced to 5 1/4 years in prison.
Twenty-six-year-old Elizabeth Johnson will get credit for about three years that she has been in jail.
Johnson was convicted of custodial interference and unlawful imprisonment in October in the 2009 disappearance of her then-8-month-old son, Gabriel. The jury failed to reach a verdict on a kidnapping charge.
Authorities say Johnson told the boy's father that she killed Gabriel and dumped him in a trash bin, but she recanted and told police she gave the infant to a couple at a San Antonio, Texas, park. She never provided the couple's names.
Authorities don't know if Gabriel is still alive.
Prosecutors alleged that Johnson ran off to Texas with the child as a way to retaliate against his father for ending their tumultuous relationship.

Suspect sought after man fatally shot at Southlake
May 23, 2013 12:02 GMT
SOUTHLAKE, Texas (AP) -- Police are seeking a gunman who fatally shot a man sitting in an SUV in the town square of an upscale North Texas city.
Southlake police on Thursday sought clues to the shooting of a 43-year-old man as he sat in the parked vehicle with his wife in the shopping district.
Southlake police Chief Stephen Mylett says authorities are seeking a motive but it appears the victim was targeted Wednesday night. His name wasn't immediately released.
Investigators say another vehicle pulled up to the SUV, a gunman got out and fired several shots then hopped back into his vehicle with another person and they drove away. Police believe one suspect was wearing a mask.
Surveillance video from nearby businesses will be reviewed.
Southlake is 15 miles northeast of Fort Worth.
