"Rinnyers Pena, 47, appeared to change his mind as prosecutors ran through the allegations against him during the hearing, per video from WBZ."
"Prosecutors said a woman walking her dog near Enneking Parkway in Hyde Park discovered Matos's body on May 9, 2020 - months after the Dorchester resident was first reported missing."
"Under the terms of the proposed plea deal, Pena could have been released from prison as soon as June upon receiving credit for five years served."
"Matos's remains allegedly tested positive for fentanyl, but a medical examiner was unable to determine her cause and manner of death, court filings state."
Rinnyers Pena, 47, reversed his decision to plead guilty to charges of disinterring Alenny Matos's body, which was found in 2020. His attorney informed the court of this change during a hearing. Pena faces additional charges including kidnapping and rape. A proposed plea deal could have led to his release in June. Matos's body was discovered by a dog walker, and while fentanyl was found in her system, the cause of death remains undetermined. A hearing is set for May 6 to revisit the plea.
