CLEVELAND -- The details are shocking and hard to believe, but authorities say a woman --<span style="font-weight: bold"> who was believed to weigh around 300 lbs. at the time -- sat on her boyfriend and killed him last summer.</span>

On Wednesday, Mia Landingham, pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the death of<span style="font-weight: bold"> her 120 lb. boyfriend, Mikal Middleton-Bey.</span>

It happened back in August during an altercation between the couple, who share three children together.

During Landingham's sentencing, her boyfriend's family spoke of the pain she has caused their family.

&quot;I just want to let you know how much you have hurt us by taking Mikal away from us,&quot; said Sharon Phillips, the victim's step-mother.

Landingham's public defender told the judge there was a long history of domestic abuse between his client and her late boyfriend.

He also pointed out she has no prior criminal record.

<span style="font-weight: bold">Landingham, then told the judge she was sorry for squashing the father of her children. &quot;I just want to say that I am sincerely sorry about this situation... I wish I could take it back.&quot;</span>

Judge Carolyn Friedland sentenced her to three years probation and 100 hours community service.

Landingham was then immediately released from jail.

While Middleton-Bey's family hoped Landingham would eventually be able to take part in her children's lives, they were surprised that she got no additional jail time.

&quot;So basically you can say that I can go sit on somebody and get probation?&quot; said one of the victim's sister.

&quot;I feel there wasn't no justice.&quot;

Landingham faced a maximum of five years behind bars.
