A Compton man was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison Tuesday for beating his ex-girlfriend's 6-year-old son to death in a South Los Angeles home.
Marcas Fisher was sentenced to the maximum term by Compton Superior Court Judge John Cheroske after Fisher entered a guilty plea last month to a single count of murder for the brutal beating death of 6-year-old Dae-von Bailey.
The boy's battered body was found in July after the child's mother left the victim and his sister in ex-boyfriend's care.
Prosecutors said Fisher became upset with the child and beat him over a lengthy period of time.
Fisher -- who had prior convictions for sexual battery and burglary -- was tracked to North Las Vegas on Aug. 19 and taken into custody. His arrest involved members of a multi-agency
task force including Los Angeles police detectives, the U.S. Marshals Service, Department of Justice and members of the North Las Vegas and Las Vegas Metro police departments.
In exchange for Fisher's plea, prosecutors dropped a second count against him -- assault on a child causing death.
