Man gets 2 years in youth detention for N.M. killing

FARMINGTON — An 18-yearold man convicted of stabbing a man to death in New Mexico was sentenced to two years in a youth detention center.

The Farmington Daily Times reported Trustin Begay was sentenced as a juvenile Thursday after a jury found him guilty last week of voluntary manslaughter in the death of 28-year-old Steven Begay.

Steven Begay was stabbed multiple times in Farmington in April 2018.

Trustin Begay apologized to the family in court.

Judge Sarah Weaver said she would have imposed a tougher sentence if she could.
