Attacker Who Fatally Stabbed Brick Man Sentenced To Prison

MOUNT HOLLY, NJ — A Burlington County man has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for fatally stabbing a Brick Township man whose body was found behind a store in Mount Holly in 2021, the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office said.

The body of Sean Reynolds of Brick was found by a child behind Millerie’s Market & Deli, at the corner of Rancocas Road and King Street in Mount Holly, on the afternoon of Sept. 7, 2021, authorities said at the time.

An autopsy determined he had been stabbed multiple times the day before he was found, prosecutors said.

Jimir Wynn, 33, was arrested Sept. 9, 2021 and charged with murder in Reynolds' death. Investigators determined Reynolds had been with Wynn near Wynn's home on the evening of Sept. 6, and had been killed that night, prosecutors said.

Wynn was convicted June 19 after a Superior Court jury deliberated for about two hours, finding him guilty of aggravated manslaughter, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and unlawful possession of a weapon, prosecutors said.

On Tuesday he was sentenced by Burlington County Superior Court Judge Aimee Belgard to 30 years in prison, and must serve 85 percent under the No Early Release Act before he becomes eligible for parole, prosecutors said.

"We are grateful to the court for imposing this sentence," Prosecutor LaChia L. Bradshaw said. "This was an extremely violent attack. We extend our deepest sympathy to the family and hope this result will bring them some degree of comfort."
