Dad backs Highland Twp. man's denial he beat, stabbed ill mom

Pontiac — A onetime Christian high school honor student was sentenced Tuesday to 20-60 years in prison for beating and stabbing his mentally ill mother to death.

Jeffrey B. Pyne, 22, of Highland Township received the prison term for second-degree murder from Judge Leo Bowman in Oakland County Circuit Court.

Pyne was convicted last month of killing Ruth Pyne, 51. Her bloody, battered body was found May 27, 2011, in the garage of her Highland Township home by her 10-year-old daughter.
