Hard 50 Sentence for Murder Conviction | Topeka News

Devonta Miller, 33, just got a “Hard 50” life sentence with no parole for 50 years after pleading guilty to premeditated murder in a 2021 Topeka shooting that killed Kristy Craig-Rodriguez. He was twice found incompetent to stand trial but later deemed competent, leading to a lengthy legal battle. His co-defendant, Harlee Borders, also received a 50-year minimum for murder and aggravated kidnapping — her case even reached the Kansas Supreme Court, which upheld her conviction. This case underscores the brutal consequences of violent crime and the justice system’s unwavering stance on such offenses.
