HOBBS, N.M. (KRQE) - A 17-year-old boy, who murdered an elderly woman in Hobbs, is going to prison for a very long time.
Juan Rivas Junior was sentenced to 43 years.
He was only 15-years-old when he broke into the home of 83-year-old Clara Alvarez and s tabbed her to death in her bed.
Rivas then took off in Alvarez' car.
That is how police tracked him down.
Rivas never gave a motive, but he told police in his initial interview that he “was just going at her...getting is anger out...he was just laughing."
Rivas was given the maximum sentence.
