TYLER — A Smith County jury sentenced a Whitehouse man to life in prison after he pleaded guilty to his third charge of driving while intoxicated. 42-year-old Samuel Gentry faced a punishment range of 25 years to life, and he will be eligible for parole after he serves at least 30 years of that sentence. KETK reports that previous felony convictions bumped Gentry’s charge up to a first-degree felony.
