Man Sentenced to Life in Dismemberment Murder
August 19, 2015
A Pennsylvania man was sentenced last Friday to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the stabbing death of a man whose body was dismembered in a downtown Los Angeles hotel room in what the prosecution argued was a ritualistic killing. Edward Garcia Jr., 41, was convicted in June of first-degree murder for the Nov. 28, 2010, killing of Herbert Tracy White in room 66 at the Continental hotel.
