Stanka Sentenced to 26 Years | Baton Rouge News

Derrick Perkins, aka “Stanka,” just got a 26-year prison sentence for covering up the murder of missing businessman Nathan Millard — charges including obstruction of justice and hiding a body wrapped in a rug. The judge handed down 18 years for blocking investigation, 3 for concealing the corpse, and 5 for evading cops — all to be served consecutively. Perkins, already an eight-felony offender, admitted to driving around with Millard’s body before dumping it. Millard died from a fentanyl overdose; his widow and Perkins’ apology letter were read during sentencing, but the judge stressed the lasting trauma Perkins inflicted on the family. He also tried to destroy evidence — even burning a vehicle near the crime scene. Perkins now has a window to appeal, but for now, he’s locked up for decades.
