R. Taylor's life will be spent inside a prison cell. Taylor was sentenced on Friday to life without parole for killing two men outside of troubled Independence Avenue strip club Gerry's Silver Slipper in February 2009.
In June, a jury convicted the 32-year-old of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of armed criminal action for killing Drell
D.
Fisher and Reginald L. Barnes outside of the club on February 6, 2009.
Police found the bodies of Fisher and
Barnes, both 33 and from KCK, shot
to death in the
parking lot outside of the club.

Slipper showed Taylor's driver's license was used to get into the club
at 2:11 a.m. on February 6. Who knew they were

Taylor's defense attorneyReginald
reportedly argued that her client's license
was stolen and eye witnesses weren't trustworthy. Interesting detail:
