WV - Brooklyn Holcomb, 5, beaten to death, Princeton, 17 Jan 2007

  • #21
PRINCETON — Sadness, heart-rending sense of loss and outrage were released Monday while the man found guilty of beating his little daughter to death showed no emotion as he was sentenced to almost a century in prison.

Ronald Holcomb, 36, of Bluefield sat quiet and stoic, always looking ahead and scarcely blinking his eyes as Judge William Sadler of the Mercer County Circuit Court imposed the maximum sentence for the death of 5-year-old Brooklyn Holcomb.

Holcomb received 40 years for second-degree murder and an additional 40 years for child abuse resulting in death. Both sentences are to run consecutively, Sadler said.
