A repeat felon convicted of raping and robbing a transgender person in a St. Paul alley was sentenced Thursday to more than 27 years in prison.

Demetrius J. Miller, 33, was hit with consecutive prison terms for the violent offenses, including a 23-year sentence on the rape charge alone. That penalty was near the upper recommendation under state sentencing guidelines.
