SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - A Sacramento couple who tied up and tortured a massage client for two days before killing him have been sentenced to life in prison.

The Sacramento Bee (https://bit.ly/2nr4Smg ) says Jeremy McMahon got life without parole and his girlfriend, Michelle Okumura, was sentenced to 38 years to life on Friday.

Prosecutors say they killed 22-year-old Eric Jackson in October of 2013 after he visited Okumura for a massage. Authorities say it was revenge after Okumura claimed he’d made a sexual advance.

Prosecutors say Jackson was tied to the massage table with torn bedsheets, electrical cords and bungee cords, burned with a heated knife and finally shot when he tried to escape.
