The operator of a limo company whose vehicle crashed in upstate New York killing 20 people has been sentenced to five to 15 years in prison.

He'll serve a minimum of five years and a maximum of 15 years for his role in the tragic crash.

Prosecutors say the brakes on the stretch limo were nearly inoperable when it went off the road and into an embankment.Prosecutors said Hussain intentionally failed to follow maintenance regulations for the 2001 Ford Excursion. The stretch SUV was packed with birthday revelers when it hurtled down a hill, went off the road, and hit a parked car and trees before stopping in a streambed.

Seventeen passengers, the driver and two bystanders died in the crash outside a country store in the village west of Albany. The trial was held after a judge threw out a plea deal last fall that would have spared Hussain prison time.
