3 sentenced in fatal beating
Three men who pleaded guilty to killing Red Bank resident Jordan Collins in September 2011 will be spending decades in prison.
Nineteen-year-old Zachary Hughes, the victim's former roommate, received a 40-year sentence Monday.
Markel Mitchell, 16, received 20 years, and Jeremy Reinig, 27, received 10 years, according to court records.
Collins, 27, was bludgeoned to death with a crowbar in a home owned by his parents, prosecutors said. His credit card, laptop and wallet were stolen.
His attackers used his card to buy cigarettes, a video game and clothes, which led to their arrest.
