Marcos Uriel Lara Perez, a Mississippi man charged with setting his seven roommates on fire and killing two of them, has been brought to justice almost three years later.
The 33-year-old Byram native has been sentenced to 80 years in prison, with 20 years suspended, according to Hinds County District Attorney Jody E. Owens II.
On Wednesday, Owens announced on social media that Perez will now spend 60 years, which could be his entire lifetime, in a state correctional facility.
