GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — The man who pleaded no contest to second-degree murder in the death of a 1-year-old boy has been sentenced.
The victim, Alexander “Xan” Butler, was found dead in downtown Grand Rapids earlier this year. Alex Radulovic, the mother’s ex-boyfriend, reportedly confessed to slamming the child on the ground.
Radulovic pleaded no contest to murder and second-degree child abuse in September.
The Kent County Prosecutor’s Office says Radulovic was sentenced Thursday to 31–100 years behind bars.
