A Fresno judge on Thursday sent an elderly Cambodian refugee to prison for more than two decades for stabbing the man's estranged wife to death.
Pech Sok, 69, was convicted of first-degree murder last month in connection with the slaying of his estranged wife, who had recently left him.
A judge sentenced Sok to 26 years to life in prison.
Pech Sok had come to the U.S. to seek a new life after his first wife died in Cambodia -- a victim of dictator Pol Pot's purges.
His second wife died 11 years ago.
She drowned in the San Joaquin River as she tried to save the lives of two of their children, who also drowned.

His estranged wife is 61 years old. Should have just let her go. She's not worth it.
I guess the man has nothing else to live for so he doesn't give a shit anymore.
you play game with the law, you pay for it!
It's sounded like this man has a really bad luck in his life!He had two of his previous wife died and now this tragendy?A 26, years life behind bar...Some people failed to understand the difference between right and responsibility.And he failed to make a responsibility.
