A man who pleaded guilty in the beating death of his girlfriend received his sentence.
Brian Reed was charged with beating Gypsy Reyes to death in May of 2013. Reed pleaded guilty in December to manslaughter and was sentenced to 20 years in jail.
Friends have said all along this was a case of domestic violence. Friends of Reyes even held vigils and fundraisers to bring awareness to the crime and fought to get tougher domestic violence laws in place.

The young mother of two wasn’t found until the morning after the incident. Her sisters have been very attentive to Reed’s court proceedings but say when it came to the plea deal, they were left in the dark.
Reed was also sentenced to 12 months for violating an EPO.
