Key Points:
- Nick Pasqual, a former TV actor, was sentenced to 32 years to life in prison for the attempted murder of his ex-girlfriend, makeup artist Allie Shehorn, after stabbing her multiple times at her Sunland home in May 2024.
- Pasqual was convicted of attempted murder, first-degree residential burglary with someone present, and inflicting injury on an intimate partner; Shehorn had previously obtained a restraining order against him.
- Shehorn testified in court with visible scars, describing the attack and her fear of dying, while the judge questioned Pasqual’s sincerity due to a phone call where he allegedly mocked her.
- Pasqual was arrested at a Texas border checkpoint following the attack and had been released on bail just five days before the stabbing after an earlier domestic assault incident.
- The LA County district attorney emphasized the case as a stark example of domestic violence escalating to near-fatal levels, with Pasqual stating his intent to focus on sobriety, accountability, and filing an appeal.
