OGDEN — Two women who pleaded guilty to third-degree felony rioting in the beating of a 15-year-old girl — a video of which showed up on YouTube — have been sentenced to six months in the Weber County Jail.
Paloma Veronica Lopez, 24, and Alexandra Elizabeth Gutierrez, 18, were sentenced Wednesday to six months each in jail.
Ogden police said a middle-school student alerted a school resource officer about a video of the Dec. 2 beating on YouTube, which led police to the suspects. Police said the beating was over a perceived gang-related insult. The victim was severely beaten and suffered a broken eye socket.
Three juveniles also were arrested in the incident.
