An Eyota teenager was given a 10-year prison sentence for the murder of his younger brother nearly a year ago in what the judge called one of the most chilling and profoundly sad cases in his 40-year legal career.
Kaleb Wolfe Smith, 18, pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter in connection to the June 2020 death of his 5-year-old brother, Alex James Smith. He was sentenced Thursday morning in Olmsted County District Court by Judge Kevin Lund to 120 months in state prison.
