Baltimore County Man Gets Two Life Sentences For Murdering Stepmother, Concerned Neighbor

TOWSON, Md. (WJZ) -- A Baltimore County man will spend the rest of his life in prison for killing his stepmother and a neighbor.

Ryan Michael McGuire, of Rosedale, admitted he killed his 66-year-old stepmother Judy Elizabeth Slebzak in May 2018 and then stole her car and belongings to help pay for drugs. Slebzak's body was found inside a chest in her home.

He then killed his 61-year-old neighbor Cindy Berdina Testerman weeks later because she kept asking questions about her missing friend.

McGuire pleaded guilty to the murders last month.
