EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — An man was sentenced to nearly 29 years in prison for the “savage” stomping murder of an Everett woman. One week after a jury convicted him, Jamel Alexander’s defense attorneys say he would have been acquitted if jurors knew about “crucial evidence” they weren’t allowed to see. The judge disagreed. Shawna Brune’s battered body was found by a man walking his dog. Detectives used security footage to identify Alexander as a suspect. He told detectives he paid Brune $100 for sex that night, but did not harm her. Alexander was found guilty of first-degree murder.
