Renzi sentenced the four to agreed-upon pleas: 35 years for Dennis Perez and Elliot Rivera, 15 years for Samantha Hughes, and 13 years for Leah Gigliotti.

All four pleaded guilty to kidnapping crimes, admitting their parts in the December abduction — a case of mistaken identity that led to two days of torture of the two students before they were rescued by a SWAT team.

The two women helped lure the victims to the Harvest Street home where they were beaten and abused.

Assistant District Attorney Matthew Schwartz said that all four shared responsibility for the brutality, regardless of their roles.

"The actions of these four defendants is, quite honestly, difficult to even comprehend," he said.

A fifth, Jesus Castro-Ubiles, pleaded guilty and was sentenced earlier to 35 years in prison.

A jury this week convicted four others who were involved in the crimes. They are scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 21.
