HARRISBURG, Pa. — Editors note: The attached video is from Nov. 21, 2019.  A Maryland man was sentenced to over nine years in prison Wednesday for obstructing a federal investigation into a Franklin County triple homicide.  The United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that Mark Johnson, 36, from Baltimore, was sentenced to 110 months in jail after pleading guilty to obstructing a federal investigation.  Johnson's guilty plea follows the June 25, 2016 murder of Phillip Jackson, Wendy Chaney and Brandon Cole in a Mercersburg barn.
