A former bouncer at a bar in Manhattan's SoHo section has been sentenced to life without parole in the murder of a graduate student from Massachusetts.
The bouncer, Darryl Littlejohn, 44, showed no emotion as the mother and the sister of the victim, Imette St. Guillen, made statements before the sentencing in State Supreme Court in Brooklyn.
The body of St. Guillen, a 24-year-old studying forensic science at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, was found on Feb. 25, 2006, on the side of a dirt road by the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn. She was naked, gagged and beaten, and had been wrapped in a blanket.
In January, Mr. Littlejohn was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison in the 2005 kidnapping of another young woman.
