INGLEWOOD, Calif. (KABC) -- A teenage driver of a Lamborghini SUV was sentenced Thursday in connection with a West Los Angeles crash that killed a 32-year-old woman in February.

A judge handed down the sentence during a disposition hearing at the Inglewood Juvenile Courthouse. He was sentenced to nine months of what was described as a "rigorous juvenile camp" plus four years of probation.

The teenage driver's name has not been publicly disclosed because he is a minor. He had previously admitted to felony vehicular manslaughter in the case.

A 17-year-old driver of a Lamborghini who was charged in a fatal West Los Angeles crash that left a 32-year-old woman dead admitted to vehicular manslaughter in the case.

Muñoz's family and friends demonstrated outside of the courthouse on Aug. 10, after her uncle said a judge denied a request to remove house arrest for the teen.
