Overview
- A Los Angeles judge on Tuesday sentenced actor Nick Pasqual to 32 years to life after a jury found him guilty in May of attempted murder and other felonies.
- Jurors convicted Pasqual of attempted murder, forcible rape, first‑degree burglary and multiple counts of injuring a partner, and they found he caused great bodily injury and personally used a knife.
- Prosecutors say Pasqual broke into Allie Shehorn’s Sunland home on May 23, 2024, stabbed her more than 20 times, fled California and was detained at a U.S. border checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas.
- Shehorn testified at trial with visible scars, described a history of abuse and delivered a victim impact statement while friends organized a GoFundMe to help cover her extensive surgeries and medical care.
- Shehorn has filed a civil lawsuit alleging sexual battery and related claims that mirror the criminal case, and Pasqual’s representatives say he will pursue an appeal, a development that will keep criminal and civil tracks running in parallel.
