Jarrod Wyatt, the former MMA fighter, who committed a frenzied 2010 killing of his sparring partner after drinking psychedelic mushroom tea, was sentenced to 47 years in state prison today.
Jarrod Wyatt made a name for himself fighting viciously in the MMA cage, but when he was accused of the heinous murder of his sparring partner he decided not to fight.
On March 21, 2010, police arrived at the home of mixed martial artist Jarrod Wyatt. What they found was a macabre scene: Wyatt’s friend and sparring partner Taylor Powell was dead — his still-beating heart had been ripped from his body by a berserk Wyatt.
