YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIDAHO FALLS -- The courtroom was full of emotion Wednesday afternoon as a 60-year-old man was given a lengthy prison sentence for the second-degree murder of a Swan Valley father of two.
District Judge Bruce Pickett sentenced Randy Michael Larkin to a minimum of 25 years and a maximum of life in prison for the second-degree murder of 36-year-old Morey Pelton.
He will also be required to pay over $20,308.50 in restitution and court fees.
Larkin initially pleaded not guilty after being indicted on July 14, 2022, for first-degree murder and a sentencing enhancement for the use of a deadly weapon.
On Nov. 22, after a 10-day jury trial, a jury found Larkin guilty of second-degree murder, including the enhancement.
