A Minneapolis man has been sentenced to more than 33 years in prison after pleading guilty to killing a 24-year-old man last fall.
Prosecutors said 39-year-old Jason Jerrell Herron entered a guilty plea Thursday to one count of second-degree intentional murder.
Herron, who also goes by William Howard Sanders IV, was immediately sentenced to 400 months in prison. He will receive credit for 380 days already served in custody. Prosecutors had previously indicted him on a first-degree murder charge that carried the possibility of life in prison, but that charge was dismissed as part of the plea agreement.
