MAN WHO CONFESSED ONLINE TO DUI MANSLAUGHTER SENTENCED TO JAIL

'My name is Matthew Cordle, and on June 22, 2013, I hit and killed Vincent Canzani,' he says. 'This video will act as my confession.'
Cordle has been praised for coming forward and using YouTube to send a message to others who might consider driving drunk.

Cordle will plead guilty to aggravated vehicular homicide on Sept. 18, according to his attorneys. He entered a preliminary plea of not guilty Wednesday in a procedural move that would allow a judge to be appointed that would accept a guilty plea. 
Cordle is also charged with a misdemeanor count of operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol. If convicted, he faces up to 8 1/2 years in prison.
Angela Canzani has previously spoken out against Cordle, saying the only reason he posted the video is so he could try to get a lighter prison sentence. 
She said he was ‘totally misleading’ with his confession because he was already a suspect in the crime.
‘There was a traffic cam. There was a third car involved,’ Canzani told So people are kind of looking at this like he’s just coming out of nowhere…Like he’s some hero or something.’
But on Friday, the ex-wife of Mr Canzani told MailOnline she 'applauded' the decision of Cordle - who now faces criminal charges brought by the county prosecutor. 
In the YouTube video, Cordle pleads with viewers not to drink and drive.
'I can't bring Mr. Canzani back, and I can't erase what I've done, but you can still be saved. Your victims can still be saved,' he says.
