A man charged with killing his ex-girlfriend and her father in southwestern Michigan in 2016 has agreed to be sentenced to 40 to 60 years in prison in a plea deal.
The Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph reports 26-year-old Alex Perez will be given his punishment July 16 after pleading no contest but mentally ill to two counts of second-degree murder.
He was charged in the deaths of 27-year-old Renee Mitchell and her father, 67-year-old John Mitchell, near Coloma.
Stephanie Kopaceski, whose sister and father were killed, says the expected sentence "isn't enough."
She says: "It should be life for a life." Perez and Renee Mitchell had two daughters.
Police found Perez and the girls in Georgetown, Colorado, after an Amber Alert.
Police believe Perez was returning home to Los Angeles.
