GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Shawn Jarrett was sentenced to between 60 and 90 years in prison Wednesday in connection with the murder of Yolanda Reyes.

Reyes disappeared April 24, 2014.  Her husband dropped her off that morning at Neal Mast and Sons Greenhouse in Walker, where she worked with Jarrett.

Nearly a month later, her body was found by a construction crew at a nearby site.

Jarrett is already serving a life sentence for raping an 85-year-old Grandville woman in June 2014.  He was released from prison in Pennsylvania in 2012 after serving 30 years in prison for murder.
