Lopez was found crying over Nemeth’s body when they arrived. Lopez tried to convince the police that he and Nemeth were having “rough sex,” but the officers could tell by the condition of the body and the apartment that it was a lie.
Finally, Lopez confessed that he had lost his temper when Nemeth called out her ex’s name. Lopez said during the investigation that had he been sober, he would have left the apartment without harming Nemeth.
But, because he was drunk, he lost his temper and killed her.
Lopez took a plea deal and avoided the death penalty. Instead, he will spend the rest of his life in prison. How miserable he is going to be, but after what he did, maybe he deserves it! Share away, people.
