Maynard stated he would recommend to the parole board that they “keep (Brenner) for as long as they legally can.”
James Brenner admitted to the murder of 19-year-old Dylan Rounds after leading law enforcement officers to the burial site as part of a plea agreement in May.
As part of the agreement, Brenner pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and two counts of possession of a firearm by a restricted person. All other charges were dismissed.
