MOTEL MURDERER SENTENCED

The Bakersfield man who admitted to torturing and killing a woman at El Morocco Motel on Golden State Avenue has sentenced to life in prison.

Jaime Osuna left the murder weapons in Yvette Pena’s back after the attack six years ago. Prosecutors say Osuna barely knew the victim.

He was sentenced on what would have been the victim’s 42nd birthday.
