AMARILLO, Texas (KFDA) - Just this month, the Potter County District Court found a man guilty of domestic violence strangulation and kidnapping charges.

Officials say Randall Bivins was convicted and sentenced to 35 years behind bars for each case at the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

Each sentence will run at the same time because they came from the same incident.

Officials say on October 10, 2023, repeated 911 calls were made by a cellphone number where dispatchers could hear a woman crying and a man yelling at her.

The Amarillo Police Department was able to determine the phone number was linked to Bivins.

Officials say officers made contact with Bivins over the phone who said the phone call must have been accidental, and everything was fine.
