California man gets life sentence for meat cleaver slayings
Fox News
A Southern California man who killed two women with a meat cleaver after a New Year's Eve party while his wife and son waited in a car outside was sentenced Friday to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Ireland testified that he killed Yolanda Holtrey, 59, and Michelle Luke, 49, on Jan. 1, 2017, and then returned to set fire to Holtrey's home, which prosecutors said was an attempt to destroy evidence.
Ireland said the killings occurred after Holtrey caught him having sex with Luke while Ireland’s wife and 11-year-old son were in a car parked outside, waiting for Ireland to leave. He said he was defending himself after Holtrey attacked him with the cleaver and later Luke attacked him with a kettlebell.
