BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — A Niagara Falls man has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder after prosecutors said he killed a woman in a motel room on Niagara Falls Boulevard.

The Niagara County District Attorney’s Office said 38-year-old Lauren Hayes was killed in February 2023. According to Niagara Falls police, her body was found in the room and Brian Wallace, 37, was subsequently charged.

“This was a horrible crime for which the defendant deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail,” Niagara County District Attorney Brian Seaman said in a release.

According to Seaman’s office, Wallace will be sentenced to 20 years to life in prison when he’s back in court on September 3.
