A man charged in the 2012 slaying of a Red Bank businessman has pleaded guilty.
Segmund Boyd, 40, pleaded guilty Tuesday to second-degree murder and especially aggravated robbery in the July 28, 2012, shooting death of Winston Gant, 65.
Gant was the father-in-law of state Rep. Gerald McCormick.
Charges against Boyd’s co-defendant Adrian Gustus, 39, were dismissed on Tuesday, as well.
Hamilton County Criminal Court Judge Don Poole sentenced Boyd to 18 years on both charges. The time will run together. The maximum penalty for second-degree murder is 25 years.
