Tyler Richard Lewis was sentenced to 16 years and eight months for beating his 75-year-old stepfather to death in a plea deal that reduced his charges.
The plea agreement required Lewis to accept convictions for voluntary manslaughter, assault, and false imprisonment while the murder charge was dropped by prosecutors.
The incident occurred on July 5, 2022, and the charges were formally brought against Lewis after the coroner’s report confirmed the manner of death.
Lewis has received credit for time spent in custody since December 2022, and he is currently serving his time in Soledad.
