An inmate accused of murdering a convicted child predator after the man’s sentencing has admitted his guilt in the killing.
Federal inmate Adam Taylor Wright entered a guilty plea on Thursday regarding one count of second-degree murder in the death of inmate Christian Maire inside the Milan Correctional Facility, MLive.com reported Friday.
Court records said in January 2019, 41-year-old Wright and co-defendants Alex Albert Castro and Jason Dale Kechego unlawfully killed Maire, the U.S. Attorney’s Office Eastern District of Michigan detailed in a press release on Thursday:
Specifically, Wright and Kechego repeatedly kicked and stomped Maire in the head, and Wright prevented Maire from fleeing while Castro repeatedly stabbed Maire. Wright, along with his two co-defendants, then worked together to throw Maire’s body down a flight of metal stairs. The plea agreement calls for a sentence over 27 years that can be imposed concurrently, partially concurrently, or consecutively to the sentences of imprisonment (totaling 199 months) he is already serving on three other cases.
