A 40-year-old man on Thursday pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the March 2022 stabbing death of a marine veteran outside the Sons of Boston bar where he worked as a bouncer, Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden’s office announced.

Alvaro Larrama, of East Boston, entered the guilty plea in Suffolk Superior Court, where Judge Josh Wall sentenced him to 17-20 years in prison, Hayden’s office said in a statement. Larrama had previously been charged with murder in the stabbing death of Daniel Martinez, 23, a recently discharged Marine veteran who was visiting Boston with friends for St. Patrick’s Day weekend.

Laramma worked as a bouncer at the Sons of Boston bar, which has since been renamed to Loyal Nine, according to The Boston Herald. The stabbing occurred just before 7 p.m. Saturday on March 19, 2022.
