MIDDLE RIVER, MD — A man who pleaded guilty in March to killing a woman and her granddaughter at their Middle River home was sentenced Friday to life in prison without the possibility of parole, according to a report.
The decision came down after Circuit Judge Marc DeSimone Jr. ruled that Bryan Cherry, 38, posed a risk to the public if he was released, The Banner reported.

Cherry's sentencing is tied to the July 2024 deaths of 75-year-old Iona Sellers and 29-year-old Autumn Harvey, who were found dead inside a home on the unit block of Taos Circle in Middle River.
Both women suffered apparent trauma to the upper body, police said in a release at the time.
