Kansas woman sentenced for home-invasion attack

Torres

RENO COUNTY— One of three people involved in the beating of a Hutchinson woman was sentenced Friday to four years in prison. 

Pleasure Torres, 35, Hutchinson was arrested with 19-year-old Demetrius Vansyckle and Melissa McGuire. Torres was charged with aggravated battery and aggravated assault.  All three are accused of beating a woman repeatedly after breaking into a home on West 14th Street in Hutchinson on June 6.

The sentence will run consecutively to a case from 2016 where she threatened her boyfriend with a knife after a domestic dispute. For that Sept. 26, 2016 incident she was given a 22-month sentence. The judge noted that she should be in a facility because of her mental illness, but ordered the sentence in prison served. Vansyckle and McGuire are both on community corrections for their part in the battery and burglary case.
