DAYTONA BEACH – A Daytona Beach woman convicted by a Volusia County Jury in only nineteen minutes on October 1, 2015 of DUI Causing Death was sentenced to 11 years in prison today, December 1, 2015. Sandra Dee Heilman, 44, faced a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison. Upon her release from prison, Heilman will be placed on 4 years of drug-offender probation and will have her driver’s license revoked for life.
