NEWPORT NEWS -- A federal jury sentenced a Morgantown man to death in Newport News, Va. Thursday for killing a Navy sailor as part of a plot organized by the man's wife and her boyfriend.

Jurors convicted David Anthony Runyon, 38, of conspiracy to commit murder for hire, carjacking resulting in death and use of a firearm during a crime of violence resulting in death on July 17, 2009.

Catherina Rose Voss, 34, of Newport News, and her boyfriend, Michael Anthony Eric Draven, 29, of Newport News, plotted to kill Cory Allen Voss in order to collect his life insurance money, according to court documents.

The couple met while Cory Voss was on a six-month deployment for the United States Navy in 2006, court records show, and they continued the affair even after the sailor returned.

Catherina Voss and Draven began plotting Cory Voss's murder in early 2007.

Cory Voss had a $400,000 life insurance policy plus a $100,000 death grautuity through the military.

Draven met Runyon, a former police officer and former member of the United States Army, at a medical research study in Baltimore, Md., evidence shows, and they talked about killing Cory Voss.

It was eventually decided that Catherina Voss and Draven would pay Runyon $20,000 to murder Cory Voss at the Oyster Point Branch of Langley Federal Credit Union.

Runyon got into Cory Voss's truck at the bank just after 11:00 on the night of April 29, 2007 and shot the sailor five times.

Those shots killed Voss.

A jury convicted Draven of his involvement in the plot on July 17, 2009, and he faces a mandatory life in prison sentence.

Draven will be sentenced on November 17, 2009.

Catherina Voss pleaded guilty to her part in the plan on November 14, 2009 and is serving life in prison.

Runyon will be formally sentenced on December 4, 2009 in Norfolk, Va.
