Current Events > Another old men getting treated lightly after killing two men.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Someone made a post about 77 year old me getting out of just just to kill someone else.

This next guy is 70. He only spent 10 years for killing one women, and not 13 years for raping , drugging and killing a teenager.

For his first murder, shooting a woman to death in the 1980s, Armando Botell served less than 10 years in prison.

The 70-year-old Miami man wont spend much more time in prison for his second murder.

Under a plea deal struck Thursday, Botell pleaded guilty to murdering 17-year-old Romina Fernandez, then dumping her body in a Sweetwater trash bin and setting her ablaze in October 2014.
Botell will serve 13 years behind bars, plus two years of house arrest and eight years of probation. With credit for the time hes already served and if he behaves behind bars he could be released in five years or so.

The plea deal was struck with the blessing of Fernandezs parents, who appeared in court Thursday but declined to make a statement to the judge. Theres been quite a bit of emotional drain on the next of kin, prosecutor Sonali Desai told the court.

The plea deal, however, did not sit well with the homicide investigators who arrested Botell.

Im disappointed. We would have won at trial. He deserves to be in prison for life, said Miami-Dade Detective Juan Segovia.

They don't want to pay for his medical costs while he is in jail. The elderly are more expensive to jail then younger inmates and the public safety risk is relatively lower.
