Overview
- Mark Graham Ludbrook received a 19-year sentence Thursday, with eligibility for parole after 14 years.
- Outlets reported that time already served could make his first parole window about 12 years from now.
- A jury in February found him guilty of murder after rejecting his claim that he lacked control because of intoxication.
- The judge said PCE caused bizarre behavior and severely weakened his reasoning, which lowered his moral culpability when setting the minimum term.
- Witnesses said he walked naked, acted like a game-show host, and talked to plants before he stabbed himself; when Autumn Baker, 40, tried to take the knife to help, he fatally stabbed her.
