Sentencing Imminent for Leavenworth Man Convicted of Murder
A Leavenworth man convicted of murder will be sentenced in February.
35-year-old Travis Collins was found guilty Tuesday on all counts related to the February 2024 slaying of Julio Garcia Ramirez.
Garcia Ramirez was discovered shot to death beside his truck near Rock Island Road and Kentucky Avenue in East Wenatchee.

Collins was convicted of first- and second-degree murder along with first-degree assault and second-degree robbery. Compounding matters, said Ethan Morris, deputy prosecutor for Douglas County, was a special finding that Collins used a firearm in the commission of his crimes.
The trial began on Jan. 6, with jurors hearing three and a half days of testimony.
After closing arguments on Monday morning, the jury deliberated for roughly seven hours over two days before reaching their decision.
Collins faces a minimum quarter-century in prison, but the presiding judge could opt for a longer sentence. His sentencing in Douglas County Superior Court is scheduled for Feb. 18.
