LAS VEGAS (KSNV) -- Two women were formally sentenced to at least a decade behind bars for killing a man in a Las Vegas Strip hotel room in 2023.
A judge on Thursday accepted the terms of a plea agreement for Erika Covington, 21, and Arionna Taylor, 22, for the murder of 25-year-old Bryan Altamirano-Solano, according to court records.
Covington and Taylor agreed to plead guilty in November to counts of second-degree murder and robbery with a deadly weapon. Their sentences will be 10 to 25 years in prison.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police said Altamirano-Solano was found dead from a gunshot wound inside Caesars Palace in May 2023.
Investigators learned he had gone into his room with Covington and Taylor, both 20 at the time. Surveillance video showed the two women running out of his room about 10 minutes after going inside.
A cartridge casing left at the scene was traced back to another incident involving Taylor, according to an arrest report.
Detectives identified the two women through social media and arrested them for Altamirano-Solano's murder.
