Teen sentenced to 7 years in prison for Lakewood Halloween 2022 arson
One of the two teenagers convicted of murder in a deadly Halloween 2022 apartment fire has been sentenced to seven years.
Lakewood police in November 2022 arrested a 14-year-old and a 12-year-old in the fire that killed 31-year-old Kathleen Payton and her 10-year-old daughter Jazmine Payton-Aguayo, injured ten other people and displaced everyone in the 32 units of the Ashley Square Apartments, 935 Sheridan Blvd.
The 14-year-old, now 15, pleaded guilty in July to two counts of first-degree murder, first-degree arson and assault charges.
He was sentenced Tuesday to seven years in the Colorado Department of Human Services Division of Youth Service with 113 days of pre-sentence confinement credit, according to a news release from the First Judicial District Attorney’s Office.
The other teen has a status hearing Oct. 16.
