JUSTIN HANSEN IS ASKING THAT HIS SENTENCE BE REDUCED. IN JULY, HANSEN GOT 18 YEARS IN PRISON FOR BEATING AND NEARLY KILLING THEN-CIBOLA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT BRITTANI MARCELL IN 2008. HIS ATTORNEY SAYS HANSEN’S INCARCERATION HAS BEEN DIFFICULT FOR HIS FAMILY, ESPECIALLY HIS OLDEST DAUGHTER WHO SUFFERS FROM P-T-S-D AND IS STRUGGLING IN SCHOOL.
HANSEN IS SERVING HIS SENTENCE AT THE LEA COUNTY CORRECTIONAL FACILITY IN HOBBS. A HEARING ON THE MOTION TO REDUCE THE SENTENCE WILL BE HELD IN STATE DISTRICT COURT IN DECEMBER.
