A Northern California man has pleaded guilty to raping and killing a 13-year-old girl he kidnapped as she walked home from school.

The Reporter of Vacaville says Anthony Lemar Jones entered the plea Friday to murder with special circumstances. He’s now facing life in prison.

Prosecutors say Jones, a local barber, followed Genelle Conway-Allen and ordered her into his car in the town of Fairfield on Jan. 31, 2013.
