Sunrise anchor Skylar Heisey was in the courtroom Friday and says Ivan Osuna will spend the rest of his life behind bars.

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A San Luis man has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of three people in Yuma.

It was a tense and emotional day in the Yuma County Superior Court Friday as 43-year-old Ivan Osuna was sentenced after being found guilty of three counts of first-degree murder last week.

Osuna addressed the court and delivered a statement.

"To the three families, I just want to say something from my heart...two of them were my friends...the only thing I want to say is for them to not be resting," Osuna remarked.

The victims included 28-year-old Kristin Carrillo, 31-year-old Daniel Herrera Jr. and 45-year-old Juan Luna-Montijo.

Judge Claudia Gonzales handed down three consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

"It is ordered that you be sentenced to a natural life term in prison. These sentences [shall run consecutively]," Judge Gonzales declared.

During the hearing, the victims' family members had the chance to speak about the impact of Osuna's crimes.

"I have decided to not express the impact of the death of Kristin because I refuse to give him the glory or satisfaction of giving him any further harm or pain to my family, We will always remember them and cherish every moment we had with them," said Carrillo's family member. "I will be able to tell Daniel and Kristin's children that the person who hurt their daddy and mommy will never be out of society to hurt anyone else again."

To close out the hearing, Osuna was seen blowing kisses towards his family.

A restitution hearing is set for May 29.
