BEND, OR -- Wesley Brady will serve the rest of his life in prison for the murders of 18-year-olds Angela Pastorino and Alfredo Hernandez. Their bodies were found last August inside a Bend garage where they’d been working with Brady.

Prosecutors say the two men fought before the murders. Brady was arrested the next day, when he returned to the home during the police investigation. He pled guilty this week to two counts of First Degree Murder and one count of Strangulation.  Brady was sentenced Friday to life without the possibility of parole.

The Deschutes County District Attorney's Office issued a statement following the sentencing hearing: 

We would like to acknowledge the outstanding work of the Bend Police Department patrol officers and detectives who investigated this case, as well as the Central Oregon Major Incident Team, the Oregon State Police Crime Lab and the Oregon Medical Examiner’s Office. We would also like to acknowledge our victim advocates for their hard work and dedication to bring justice to the victims and their families.

As we remember Angela Alexus Pastorino and Alfredo P. Hernandez, whose lives were tragically cut short, we want to send our condolences to their loved ones and recognize the impact this terrible act of violence has had on them and the community as a whole.
