A Jefferson City man is now sentenced to life in prison in connection to a 2017 Montgomery County murder of Benjamin Renick.
According to online court records an Audrain County judge gave the maximum sentence for second degree murder to Michael Humphrey on Monday.
Humphrey was found guilty of first-degree murder and armed criminal action.

Lynlee was found guilty of second-degree murder and armed criminal action last month and will be officially sentenced on January 24th.
