    Thomas Trevino Sentenced in 2010 ID Murder of Girlfriend

    Twin Falls Man Charged With Murder Pleaded Not Guilty

    The arraignment of Thomas Trevino was on the docket on Monday in District Court.

    Trevino is being charged with one count of first–degree murder for the shooting death of his girlfriend on July 5 in a Twin Falls hotel room.

    Trevino then fled the Twin Falls area and was later arrested in Mesa County, Colorado.

    In District Court, Trevino entered a plea of not guilty and a jury trial date was set for January 31, 2010.

    The State is set to seek and enhanced penalty for Trevino, due to the fact that he used a deadly weapon on his victim, adding a potential death sentence or life, plus 15 years and a $50,000 fine.

    As we told you earlier this week, a plea agreement had been worked out between prosecutors and Thomas Trevino Jr. Yesterday, a judge has ordered Trevino to spend 15 years in prison for shooting and killing his girlfriend at a motel in 2010. The Times News reports that 31-year-old Thomas Trevino Jr. was punished in accordance with a plea agreement reached with prosecutors earlier this week. Under terms of the deal, Trevino pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, a crime enhanced for his use of a deadly weapon in the shooting of 24-year-old Jill Gelever. Gelever was shot in the back of the head and died 10 days later in a Boise hospital. Trevino was arrested two days after the shooting in Mesa County, Colo. His trial had been set for Oct. 4. He was initially charged with first-degree murder and faced up to life in prison if convicted.
