The legal aftermath has carried into 2025. Just days after her sentencing, Komoroski’s attorneys filed a motion seeking a reduced sentence.

Chris Gramiccioni and Nathan Williams argued in their filing that the original ruling was “unwarranted and grossly disproportionate compared to other cases in the region.”

However, the State’s latest filing tells a different story.

According to the document, the defense’s request for a lighter sentence should be denied because the judge “accurately followed the recommendations for sentencing under the state’s legislature.”

It was meant to be the first day of the rest of their lives and it’s heartbreaking that it ended so tragically. Samantha Miller was such a beautiful young woman, and our love and thoughts go out to Aric and their families.
