Daniel Silva | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

Daniel Silva is speaking out for the first time since Corey La Barrie‘s death.

The former Ink Master star was arrested for murder after the car he was driving, with Corey in the passenger seat, crashed. After being transported to the hospital, Corey died and Daniel was charged with one count of second degree murder.

He plead not guilty at the time, and instead took a no contest plea deal for one count of felony gross vehicular manslaughter.

Daniel had been sentenced to four years in state prison, but it was suspended. He was then sent to county jail for 365 days, with 216 days already served. Daniel is now on five years probation and in the process of completing 250 hours of community service.

“It’s almost impossible to find the right words for something like this. At the moment I’m still processing all of these emotions that I’m going through, and just being forced to confront the fact that this accident resulted in the death of one of my best friends,” Daniel said in the video.

The video also revealed that Corey‘s family reportedly sent a letter to the judge on Daniel‘s case and in it, they requested the dismissal of the second-degree murder charge in favor of manslaughter.

“It’s hard to put into words how truly grateful I am for the family to send a letter like this in such a difficult time,” he added. “The fact that they even showed me an ounce of empathy and were able to look past the misinformation instead of seeking vengeance shows how compassionate and understanding they really are.”

Daniel Silva has been sentenced in the death of Corey La Barrie.

Earlier this year, Daniel and the late Corey were involved in a car accident when they crashed into a tree while leaving a party in a suburb of Los Angeles with Corey being declared dead after being transported to the hospital.

Daniel had fled the scene, and after being arrested, entered a no contest plea with a 2nd-degree murder charge.

In court today (August 25), Daniel was sentenced to four years in prison, however, that’s not what he will be serving.

According to TMZ, the Ink Master star and tattoo artist will end up serving only 365 days in county jail with 216 days of credit.

Daniel is also getting 5 years of probation and 250 hours of community service for the fatal accident.

Mike Cavalluzzi, Daniel‘s attorney, shared that he believes the sentence is fair.

“It’s important to Daniel to work with Corey’s family to make sure the memory of his friend is never forgotten.”

Daniel Silva has copped a plea deal in the case of the death of his friend Corey La Barrie.

The 27-year-old Ink Master star “entered a no contest plea for killing the passenger in his McLaren sports car after crashing into a tree in Valley Village,” the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced on Wednesday (July 15), People reports.

The Deputy District Attorney said that Daniel entered the plea the day before to one felony count of gross vehicular manslaughter.

Back on May 10, Daniel and the 25-year-old YouTuber were involved in a fatal car accident in Los Angeles.

Daniel was the driver of a 2020 McLaren 600LT and he reportedly lost control of the vehicle. Authorities say that he “ran off the road and collided with a stop sign and a tree.”

It has been alleged that Daniel tried to leave the scene of the crash, but that he was stopped by witnesses. LAPD said, “The driver of the McLaren exited the vehicle and attempted to leave the scene but was stopped by citizens who came to render aid. No other vehicles were involved in the collision.”

Corey was celebrating his 25th birthday that day and he was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Daniel also was transported to the hospital.

Daniel was arrested the following day and was charged with murder.

Daniel‘s sentencing is scheduled for August 13. He faces up to four years in state prison.
