Women Convicted for Killing Man in Las Vegas Strip Hotel: Sentenced to Over a Decade Imprisonment
Two young women, Arionna Taylor and Erika Covington, who calliously robbed and took a life in a casino hotel room on the Las Vegas Strip, will have to serve at least a decade behind bars before they can even think about parole.
Last month, these cold-blooded killers pleaded guilty to second-degree murder charges. Following a hearing on Tuesday, Clark County District Court Judge Tierra Jones decided that they'll serve a maximum sentence of 25 years.
A housekeeper ended up finding the victim's lifeless body eight hours later on the fifth floor of the swanky Caesars Palace.
On May 2023, one of these heartless women gunned down 31-year-old Bryan Altamirano-Solano in the same hotel room. The duo was caught on surveillance footage fleeing the scene with Altamirano-Solano's bag, just about 15 minutes after they'd slipped in. A housekeeper discovered the crime scene eight hours after the fact.
Feeling a modicum of remorse for the anguish and torment they inflicted on Altamirano-Solano's family, Covington spoke during the sentencing. Hailing from Nicaragua, Altamirano-Solano was pursuing asylum in the US.
While the particulars of the incident are still sketchy, information in available search results indicate that Taylor and Covington were accused of killing a man at a Las Vegas Strip resort[1]. A somewhat related case mentions different individuals named Covington and Arionna Taylor being sentenced to10 to 25 years in prison, but it's unclear if this pertains to the Vegas Strip hotel tragedy[3]. For a detailed account of the victim's background, the circumstances surrounding the murder, and the exact sentences for Arionna Taylor and Erika Covington, one would have to scour legal documents or news reports.
The general news has reported that Arionna Taylor and Erika Covington, who this month pleaded guilty to second-degree murder charges in Las Vegas, were involved in a casino-and-gambling related crime in a swanky Las Vegas Strip hotel, Caesars Palace. In a crime-and-justice development, Clark County District Court Judge Tierra Jones decided that Taylor and Covington will serve a maximum sentence of 25 years, following a hearing on Tuesday.
