Utah man convicted of killing teen couple, dumping bodies in mine shaft – Everything Law and Order Blog

In this episode of Crime Watch Daily Updates: The case of missing Utah teenagers Riley Powell and Breezy Otteson, who disappeared on the night before New Year’s Eve in 2017.

Powell and Otteson were last seen as they made their way to Juab County in rural Utah. Powell was reportedly communicating with Jerrod Baum’s then-girlfriend, Morgan Lewis, and had plans to meet at Lewis’ home.

Then, in March 2018, tragedy struck when investigators found Powell and Otteson’s bodies inside Tintic Standing Mine Number Two. Baum had tied up Powell and Otteson in a Jeep, brutally stabbed them to death, and then threw their bodies in the mine.

Since covering the story in 2019, Baum was found guilty Friday, April 15, 2022, of aggravated murder, aggravated kidnapping, and abuse of desecration of a human body. He was also convicted of obstruction of justice and possessing a dangerous weapon by a restricted person. In June of this year, Baum was sentenced to four consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

Let’s look back at this tragic story of these teenagers and the start of it all.

  1. I am Brit therefore, I do no know if Utah is a Death Penalty State. If it is, I would have loved this monsters gets one instead of life. Then on a second thought, I am thinking, maybe Life in Prison is good for him because he will be frustrated everyday of his remaining miserable natural life imo.

  2. So sick of all these crimes. I can see why our courts are tied up in thousands of cases. The death penalty does not deter these PARASITES because they believe they will get away with it, and many do. The death penalty should be imposed for cold blooded killers, child rapist and all rapists, pedophiles. Why is this country housing these monsters that will never be rehabilitated, at our tax payers expense…I didn't vote for that.

  3. Heartbreaking to know that there are such Evil Lunatics out there they can do something like this to someone with NO Remorse..
    Condolences to their family and friends,

    RIP to you both,

  4. The boyfriend Lee has shot up so much dope it appears he has scars from the flesh eating disease caused by injecting drugs. When the door was answered at moms her body language say active drug use. I'm going to guess meth addicts. Get them off the drugs and you'll get your answers.

  5. My goodness… America is a scary place to live…A country full of evilness…To think your own friends could kill you or be a part of your murder…What monsters live on this place?!!..I pray this guy gets the death sentence…He is a danger to society….
