A jealous ex-boyfriend will spend the next two decades behind bars for critically injuring his ex-girlfriend and killing her date her after opening fire at a car with them inside while they were on their first date overlooking the Puget Sound in Washington state.

Pierce County Superior Court Judge Garold Johnson sentenced Emilio Anthony Joseph John on Friday to 23 years in prison, court records say. John, 23, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and second-degree assault for the death of 19-year-old Alexander Shaw and injury to his 22-year-old ex-girlfriend.

“It’s a mother’s worst nightmare, and that nightmare came true for me,” Cheryl Alatorre Bautista told the court during sentencing, according to the Tacoma News Tribune.

Shaw’s family discovered his lifeless body in a Kia Forte located in the 1900 block of Commercial Street in Steilacoom on Nov. 6, 2022. They had tracked his phone to the location and saw him suffering from multiple gunshot wounds in the abdomen, chest and neck, a probable cause statement obtained by Law&Crime stated. It appeared he had been dead for several hours. Officers also found multiple 9 mm and 10 mm casings, broken glass and a bullet hole on the passenger side.
