Just before pronouncing the sentence, Judge Carlos R. Gutierrez said, “This is the most horrific case I have ever heard.”
Just before pronouncing the sentence for the defendant, the judge said, “This is the most horrific case I have ever heard,” recalling evidence that Hugo Ulises Avelino-Medina, 35, of Fairfield, had fatally stabbed his girlfriend 80 times in July 2021.
He then sentenced Avelino-Medina to 15 years to life for the crime, plus an additional year for use of a knife, and, once released from prison, to parole for life. Gutierrez also imposed nearly $10,000 in fines and ordered Avelino-Medina to have no contact with the three children he shared with Erika Avelino, 36, of Fairfield, his girlfriend.
Deputy District Attorney Shelly Moore, who led the prosecution, noted Avelino-Medina stabbed the mother of his children 80 times and traumatized the family. Through a Spanish language interpreter, Avelino-Medina said, “To all the family, I never wanted this to happen” and that he felt their pain. “It weighs on me,” he added.
