According to court documents, Mayhugh's plea agreement says he will serve three consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.
Over a dozen witness statements were read from family members, with more than two dozen members of the family present in court on Monday.
As part of the plea, Mayhugh has waived all his rights to an appeal, commutation and speaking with media.
Before the plea agreement, prosecutors with the State of Oklahoma were seeking the death penalty for Mayhugh.
