Marshfield man gets 25 years in prison for November 2024 death of his roommate

WISCONSIN RAPIDS − A 28-year-old Marshfield man was sentenced Aug. 19 to 25 years in prison for the November 2024 death of a woman who was chocked to death then taken to Price County and set on fire. Deyvin Castro-Gutierrez pleaded no contest to and was found guilty of second-degree intentional homicide in the death of Blanca Jesenia Hernandez-Portocarrero, 28, of Marshfield. The charge was reduced from a charge of first-degree intentional homicide. Retired Marathon County Circuit Judge Gregory Grau, acting as a substitute judge in the Wood County case, found Castro-Gutierrez guilty of the reduced charge. As part of the plea agreement, a charge of mutilating a corpse filed in Price County was dismissed but considered during sentencing. Wood County District Attorney Jonathan Barnett said Castro-Gutierrez told investigators he and Hernandez-Portocarrero got into an argument over some text messages and phone calls she had made. Because she was smaller, Hernandez-Portocarrero got a knife to protect herself. Castro-Gutierrez knocked the knife out of her hand and then hit her throat and held his arm across it until she stopped breathing, Barnett said. Wood County inspections: One restaurant receives 10 violations on initial and reinspection Local business news: 7 Brew drops new drive-through coffee stand in Marshfield, expected to open this fall If the case had gone to trial as first-degree intentional homicide, a jury likely would have decided Castro-Gutierrez's account of how the death happened did not justify the charge, Barnett said. There was no evidence to dispute it, he said. A neighbor in the apartment complex had put a surveillance camera in the parking lot, because he believed someone had hit and damaged his car repeatedly, Barnett said. The camera happened to catch Castro-Gutierrez putting Hernandez-Portocarrero's body in the trunk of his car, Barnett said. That is the reason officials were able to determine it was him who killed Hernandez-Portocarrero, he said. Castro-Gutierrez then took the body to Price County where he put Hernandez-Portocarrero in a ditch and tried to burn the body, Barnett said. Some people came along and saw the fire. Defendant knows he has destroyed two families, lawyer says Nothing the defendant or anyone can do will bring Hernandez-Portocarrero back, said James Bennett, Castro-Gutierrez's attorney. It is clear he tried to cover up the crime afterward. "These actions are inexcusable here and will forever be with him," Bennett said. Castro-Gutierrez was born in Nicaragua and lived with his grandmother, Bennett said. From the age of 10, he cared for his grandmother. Castro-Gutierrez wanted to become a doctor, but his family was too poor to make that happen. Castro-Gutierrez came to the United States to make money he could send home to help his family, including his four children, in Nicaragua, Bennett said. His oldest daughter is studying pharmaceutical chemistry at a university. Castro-Gutierrez is both proud that he has helped his daughter do that and sad he won't be able to continue helping her. Castro-Gutierrez knows he had taken Hernandez-Portocarrero away from her four children and he will not be available for his four children for many years. He knows he's destroyed two families, Bennett said. He hopes to return to Nicaragua and his family in coming years. Victim's family asks for harshest possible penalty Hernandez-Portocarrero's aunt spoke to the judge by a video call. She spoke through a Spanish interpreter who was interpreting the Aug. 19 proceedings for Castro-Gutierrez. The aunt said the actions of Castro-Gutierrez have devastated Hernandez-Portocarrero's children and mother. He took her away from them, she said. The family would like Grau to give Castro-Gutierrez the harshest possible penalty, the aunt said. They would like to see him spend the rest of his life in prison. Castro-Gutierrez did not give a statement when given the chance. Grau gave Castro-Gutierrez 25 years in prison to be followed by 20 years of extended supervision, which was the joint recommendation of Barnett and Bennett. Since he is not a U.S. citizen, it is likely officials will send him back to Nicaragua when his prison sentence is finished, Grau said. Grau gave Castro-Gutierrez credit for 281 days already served in jail.

Congress plans to release Epstein files to public after it gets them on Friday: report

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform plans to release some files related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to the public after receiving the material from the Department of Justice on Friday. The panel is expected to start receiving materials it subpoenaed related to Epstein on Friday. The group will redact sensitive information, including victims' identities, before it is released, a committee spokesperson confirmed to CNN. 'The Committee intends to make the records public after thorough review to ensure all victims' identification and child sexual abuse material are redacted. The Committee will also consult with the DOJ to ensure any documents released do not negatively impact ongoing criminal cases and investigations,' the spokesperson said. The spokesperson said the committee would work with the Justice Department on the release, but declined to say when it could be expected. News that the Department of Justice would start providing records related to Epstein to Congress was first shared on Monday by the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Rep. James Comer. The disclosures to Congress come after the Justice Department concluded in July that no further disclosures about Epstein were warranted. This is a breaking news story...
