A 30-year-old Anchorage woman was sentenced Wednesday for manslaughter, a charge stemming from a night of drinking and playing with guns that ended in the death of her boyfriend.

Bonnie Degenstein was sentenced to 14 years in prison for causing the death of 24-year-old Ryan Tamborino in December 2013. She pleaded guilty to manslaughter charge in March. The original charge was second-degree murder.

Police reported that Degenstein called the Anchorage Police Department dispatch on the evening of Dec. 6, 2013. She said she and Tamborrino had been drinking and "playing with guns" at a residence near midtown and that she'd accidentally shot him.

Police found Degenstein sitting on a couch just inside the front door of an upstairs apartment. Tamborrino was sitting on an adjacent couch. The wounded man was slumped over, bleeding profusely from his head but still breathing, according to charging document.

Tamborrino was transported to a local hospital and died shortly thereafter, according to the charges.

"During sentencing, Degenstein stated that the couple would play with firearms regularly while drinking alcohol, including firing weapons out the door and window of their midtown apartment," prosecutors wrote in a release.

Degenstein told the judge that on the night of her boyfriend's death, she pointed a firearm over his shoulder to shoot at a wall but he leaned into the barrel.

"(S)he pulled the trigger not realizing the firearm was still loaded," the release says.

Toxicology reports showed Degenstein's blood alcohol level was three times the legal limit for driving, prosecutors said.
