DANVILLE, Ky. — Mourners here had one thing in mind yesterday — “Kentucky justice” — as they buried a beloved, 27-year-old Weight Watchers executive who was beaten to death allegedly by her lawyer boyfriend in Queens.
“I want him to pay for what he did,” family friend Karen Pennington said of the alleged killer, Jason Bohn, 33.
“In order for it to be justice, he needs to lose his life, just like the life he took.”
Danielle Thomas died of strangulation and blunt-force trauma on June 24 after Bohn allegedly attacked her.
Bohn, who has claimed the killing was a drunken accident, faces 25 years in prison on charges of second-degree murder, aggravated criminal contempt, first-degree criminal contempt and tampering with physical evidence.
