Sentencing in the Sherry Black Case

This morning Mr. Durborow was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole for the 2010 murder of Sherry Black. 

“This was not only a crime against a family, but also our community. Today a measure of justice was found. It is imperfect but the best our system can do,” said DA Sim Gill. “Our prayers are with the Black and Miller families. Justice would be that they never had to suffer the loss of a loved one to begin with.”

“Unified Police Department and the Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office are thinking of the Black and Miller families today. In collaboration with other agencies, our officers worked tirelessly to investigate this case and we are pleased to see a measure of justice be served in court this morning,” said Sheriff Rosie Rivera

Adam Durborow will spend the remainder of his life in prison and is no longer a threat to our community.
