A man who killed his former girlfriend and the mother of his child has been sentenced to 45 years in prison.
Rashid Dean was convicted on December 11, 2013 by a four man, eight woman jury for the August 14, 2011 murder of his ex-girlfriend Oneika Johnson, 21.
Dean, 28, was motivated by jealousy when he stabbed Johnson multiple times in the security booth of the Club Med Resort in San Salvador on August 14, 2011.
During the trial, the convict's cousin said that Dean told him that he would kill Johnson and her new boyfriend, Justin Benson, who was also an employee of Club Med.
Another witness recalled seeing Dean, who worked in the hotel's laundry department, walking along the beach with a stained white T-shirt.
The doors of his van according to a separate witness, had the victim's blood on it.
Darnell Dorsette prosecuted and Murrio Ducille appeared for Dean.
