ORLANDO, Fla. — An Orlando man has been sentenced to life in prison for strangling another man he spotted with his girlfriend.
Jose Antonio Torres was sentenced Friday.
He was previously convicted of murder, kidnapping and robbery.
Authorities said Torres killed James Watrous, 58, in May after spotting Watrous at a restaurant with Torres' girlfriend, Jennifer Smedley.
Torres strangled Watrous with a shoestring while Smedley drove them around in the Watrous' pickup, investigators said.
The body was found in a wooded area several days later.
Smedley was sentenced to four years on Friday after pleading guilty to manslaughter last month as part of deal with prosecutors.
