POCATELLO Two teens who pleaded guilty to the murder of an 87-year-old Pocatello woman were sentenced Thursday by Bannock County Judge Robert C. Naftz.
As part of a plea agreement, Isaac Angel Rodriguez-Romero, 18, was sentenced 27 years to life in prison. Dustin Garrett Alfaro, 19, was ordered to serve 22 years to life. Prior to sentencing, both defendants waived their right to appeal.
Rodriguez-Romero and Alfaro broke into Arlyne Koehler’s home in March 2019 and stabbed her to death. At the time of the murder, Rodriguez-Romero was just 17-years-old and Alfaro 18.
