Jon the Mechanic sends a link<\/a> to the news that Nicholas Michael Holbert pleaded guilty to the beating death of Fort Bragg medic Kelli Bordeaux three years ago in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Holbert accepted the life sentence to avoid the death penalty;<\/p>\n

Cumberland County District Attorney Billy West said in court that Bordeaux was estranged from her husband in April 2012 and was dating someone from her native Florida when they met Holbert at Froggy Bottoms. After her boyfriend returned to Florida, she and Holbert went to the bar for an evening of pool, karaoke and drinking.<\/p>\n

Sometime during the evening, Bordeaux became aware the Holbert is a registered sex offender, West said. When they left the bar together in the early hours of April 14, 2012, Holbert asked if they could spend more time together, and Bordeaux rebuffed his advances with a “derogatory comment about him being a sex offender,” West said.<\/p>\n

Holbert then punched her, knocking her out, dragged her to his car and drove her to a makeshift camp behind the bar where he lived, West said. When Bordeaux came to, she started screaming, and Holbert “beat her until she stopped screaming, stopped moving,” the prosecutor said.<\/p>\n

The following morning, Holbert drove into some woods near Eastover and buried Bordeaux.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Her body was discovered two years later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
