While handing down a 45-year prison sentence, a judge told Ricardo Gutierrez Jr. that even if he suffers from a diagnosed anger disorder, he still chose to brutally beat his girlfriend’s 3-year-old son to death and could have stopped the attack at any time.

“He had the ability to control himself, but he chose not to,” Clark County Superior Court Judge Robert Lewis said during sentencing Tuesday.

Before the sentence was handed down, Pepe’s mother told the court through a Spanish interpreter that she doesn’t feel justice was served.

“His life is worth way more than all of the years this man can spend in a cell,” she said.

Gutierrez said he didn’t intend to hurt Pepe; he was tired and hearing voices, he said. He thinks about what happened to Pepe every day, he added.

“I didn’t know how to understand Pepito, please forgive me,” Gutierrez said.
