Tay-K was found guilty earlier this week of shooting and killing 23-year-old Mark Anthony Saldivar in 2017.

A jury in Texas' Bexar County sentenced the rapper on Tuesday and gave him 80 years in prison.

That sentence will be tacked on to the 55 years he's already serving for killing 21-year-old Ethan Walker in 2016.

Before the 80-year sentence came down, Tay-K's sister Kayla Beverly took the stand to tell jurors how rough she and her brother had it growing up. 

She explained they went to live with their father after being in an orphanage, and he physically abused them. Kayla was likely trying to sway jurors to give her brother a lighter sentence.


 

"The whoopings got worse and worser," said Kayla. "And then now it's not a belt, now it's a 2x4 ... There was times when Taymor (Tay-K) was younger than me and he would cry. And just maybe they would think he was overdramatic, so they would tie him down to an ironing board, strap him down. Stuff like that."
