Here's the lowdownβtwo young ladies, Erika Covington, 21, and Arionna Taylor, 22, are facing some serious jail time. The judge has handed them each a minimum 10-year sentence. But let's rewind...

With a strong background in English/Journalism, he's been staring down the barrel of the online casino industry since the PASPA repeal in 2018. Richard's all about keeping you informed on the latest casino news, breaking it down with clear, unbiased reports.
But let's get back to the main event. The shootout in Vegas spelled doom for Bryan Altamirano-Solano, and the perpetrators have been identified as Covington and Taylor. Both ladies were hit with some heavy charges, including open murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Right now, they're still cooling their heels in jail, and their next court date is set for May 2025. The legal system's moving at its usual glacial pace, apparently.
But the verdict, when it came, was clearβten years minimum behind bars for each of them. While official records don't confirm a May 2023 sentencing date at this juncture, it's worth noting the family has been attending recent court hearings.
