Man sentenced in murder

Saturday, Dec. 2, 2000 | 9:31 a.m.

Scott Bedard, 34, was convicted of first-degree murder and given two no-parole life terms in September. On Thursday, District Judge Jefrey Sobel sentenced Bedard on an additional 13 charges relating to the August 1997 death of Billy Hanlon, a janitorial service owner.

Prosecutors said Bedard killed Hanlon, 33, with one shot in the head when Hanlon surprised Bedard as he was burglarizing the Templeton Plaza offices.

Hanlon was the only son of Bill Hanlon, who is now a director with the Clark County School District.
