30-year sentence for Moorhead man for murdering, dismembering roommate

May 21, 2021 By Bill Werner

A Moorhead man has been sentenced to over 30 years in prison for murdering one of his roommates and putting her dismembered body in a dumpster. 28-year-old Ethan Broad pleaded guilty just over a year ago to murdering 19-year-old Dystynee Avery in a south Moorhead apartment when they got into an argument. Police later recovered Avery’s remains from the Clay County landfill. Earlier this month, a judge sentenced a Moorhead woman, 27-year-old Andrea Payne, to time already served after she pleaded guilty to helping cover up the murder of her roommate.
