“Boogaloo Boi” Gets Life In Killing Of Sheriff’s Deputy

Law & Crime reports:

A former Air Force sergeant and anti-government militia member was sentenced to life in prison for the second of two murders he committed against law enforcement employees in 2020. Steven Carrillo, 33, pleaded guilty in June of this year to nine counts over the incident that led to the murder of Santa Cruz County Sheriff Sgt. Damon Gutzwiller and the attempted murder of five other people during a gun battle and detonation of a bomb on June 6, 2020.

Prosecutors long alleged that Carrillo was affiliated with the so-called “Boogaloo” movement. During his first allocution, the defendant confirmed those allegations. In an equal parts bitter and triumphal Facebook post, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office noted that Gutzwiller’s old handcuffs were used to transport the defendant to state prison on Friday — an act employed frequently by law enforcement officers when a comrade is killed.

Read the full article. Back in June, Carrillo was sentenced to 41 years in the killing of a federal cop.

Steven Carrillo wanted a second civil war. Instead he’ll serve simultaneous terms for killing both a cop and a federal agent in 2020. https://t.co/RPjmrEoUZa
