RISING SUN, Ind. — An Indiana teenager who told his girlfriend a few weeks before he strangled his 10-year-old brother that he wanted to be just like a fictional TV serial killer was sentenced Friday to life in prison without parole.
Andrew Conley bowed his head, and members of the courtroom audience gasped as Ohio Circuit Judge James Humphrey read from a written sentencing order.
Conley, 18, unexpectedly pleaded guilty last month to the Nov. 28 murder of his brother, Conner, averting a trial. Conley’s attorney had argued for leniency because Conley was seriously mentally ill.
