Teen Killer Aiden Fucci Sentenced to Life in Prison for Stabbing Cheerleader 114 Times

[@the-finn]

I'm happy the judge gave him a life sentence. The grandmother, begging the judge to not take him away from us, was sickening considering they can visit him and talk to him. Tristen's parents, I bet, wish they could talk to their daughter 1 more time.

[@derekwalters4980]

Tristan's family is so impressive. Their love of her isn't just their words, it's in every single deed they accomplish. It is painful to witness what they've had to go through, but there is no doubt in my mind that Tristyn is looking down on her family and is so proud of them, and that she will be with them always. It was incredibly painful to watch Aiden's grandmother. What he did obviously had destroyed her and to this day, the pain is still so raw for her. I don't know if she will ever find peace because of the actions of her grandson. As she said, she doesn't know who he is anymore. She loves who he was, but the person who is sitting before her is a stranger to her. I honestly believe she is hurting by the loss of the grandson she thought she had almost as much as Tristyn's family is by the loss of their daughter. In many ways it's worse for the Aiden's family in that he was not an innocent, their child was the evil one that brought this upon them. Their own child, who they clearly loved and cared for, betrayed them all in such a horrific way, and now they have to live with what he has left behind. Tristyn will always be a beautiful, sweet, loving and kind innocent young woman, who was never able to achieve her potential. Tristyn will be remembered by her friends, family and the entire community for many decades to come, most will never forget her. Such a testimony for such a young woman who was only on this Earth for 13yrs. My her parents find peace and joy again in the most impressive and beautiful children that are Tristan's siblings. They have so much to be proud of in all their children, I'm so sorry this happened to their family.

Tristyn was not “a young woman” she was a beautiful, sweet, kind, caring child. A child taken from her family and this world far, far too soon.

@@jessicanolan7408 It's kinda hard to defend his family with how they've behaved. They have not demonstrated *any* empathy for Tristyn's family, nor have they displayed any remorse for what their son/grandson did. Yet they think _they_ have the right to ask for mercy for him? Don't forget: his mother was _caught_ washing Tristyn's blood out of her son's pants once she realized Tristyn was missing _and_ his dad just "happened" to lose the knife they thought might be the murder weapon. Then for the grandmother to compare their loss of Aidan's freedom to the loss Tristyn's family is experience when they at least can visit Aidan in jail where Tristyn's family will never speak to her or hear her voice again is insulting and incredibly disgusting. This demonstrates what's truly in their hearts. They may have had my empathy if they had earned it, but they demonstrated that the apple did not fall far from the tree and that they likely had a lot to do with him turning out to be a monster. Nope, Tristyn's family, friends and community have my empathy, Aidan's family does not deserve it with the behavior they have callously exhibited.

And even worse: The criminal energy into that murder was so huge, that the murderer even made sure that she cannot be prosecuted because of her age (she looked up the law before committing that horrible crime). Aiden Fucci belongs behind bars. For good.

This is a very emotional sentencing speech. Feel sorry for the obviously saddened judge for having to give it. His description of the effects of the crime on Tristyn, her family, friends and community are so terrible, it's hard to hear. I think this crime could have given a lot of people nightmares - wherever they live. To think that a teenage kid could cause so much devastation, is hard to get my head around. Aiden Fucci makes believable:that pure evil does, indeed, exist. Evil hates goodness, for shining its light on it. He knew that she would eventually reject him as a friend and "out" him because she was so innately intelligent and, yes, good. To allow him to walk the streets would have been a huge mistake. His life would be about destroying good wherever he went, . At least, now his evil will be tamped down, and also possibly eliminated entirely. I don't see him lasting long in prison. Many felons have hearts, or have changed in prison, and they will sense his evil. Fucci never will change, and I have a feeling he won't need a hearing in twenty years, where he's going. Like Dahmer, he will be low on the popularity scale.

I'm glad he received the max. It's too bad that in 25 years, the family will have to relive this again to keep him in. It honestly is never over for the family. Never! May God give them the peace they so need, so they may move on. My prayers are with you all.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

With any luck the monster will be unalived in prison.

[@joni8090]

He might be dead by 25 years , Prison is tough !

[@newnana9070]

Youthful offenders can’t get life without parole. So in 25 years he will be eligible . That doesn’t mean he will be let go!!! 9 times out of 10, he will spend the bulk of his life in prison.

[@seanA416]

​@@newnana9070greater chance than 9 out of 10 that he'll never get out. Parole gets granted sooo infrequently for hanious crimes like the one Aiden committed.

[@Manu_Lemoine_FR]

he will have to wait 25 years to hope for another prison sentence! It's not nothing ! he is only 16 years old and everyone wants him to stay in prison for his entire life, ie 60 years? this world is crazy

[@SamTheeStallion]

Whenever I hear the details of this case I get goosebumps. There is no Justice in something like this, but this will have to do. I often think that the people who are taken from this world, are taken to be spared the horror that is happening and is going to continue to happen. Such a beautiful, kind, and smart young woman, who was a fighter, gone way too soon, but has made such an impact across the country.

[@a.y3075]

The judge was so thorough with sentencing. It probably wasn't easy, but necessary. I can't fathom what the family has been through.

[@PaperhugsbyKim]

My heart broke for each of Tristan's family members. As a mother, I could feel their heartache and I pray for them every day.

[@theghostwitch113]

He has no remorse. He feels nothing. His lack of Empathy will always come back to haunt him. Behind bars or on the streets. I will find my way into your nightmares child and you will know exactly how she felt when you coldly took her life. I see you. We all see you. Rot. You take a life, your life get took too. Game on. Get him.....

[@renee9937]

I wish that he could feel everything that you described, unfortunately I think that he is developing into a psychopath. He may be too young to diagnose now but I think that a future diagnosis will show him to be a psychopath. I don’t know but I don’t think that pathology can be helped.

They will. His life will not be worth living. RIP beautiful child 💔😱😭

If he feels no remorse or any other emotion, what do you think will haunt him?? That’s wishful thinking. Some humans lack the capacity for empathy therefore remorse is impossible.

When I saw the judge's handling of the plea agreement I was looking forward to his sentencing. Whatever he decides I knew his allocution would be brilliant. I didn't expect this level of emotion. What a great jurist.

[@alexpiper1115]

I feel for the family. the real healing starts after today and they still have to come to grips with the fact that even though justice was served, the end result is still the same which is that they dont have a daughter/sister/granddaughter and have to learn to come to terms with that.

[@josephbrandt6778]

The look in her father's eyes as her mother cried says it all and he's not the only one who feels that way towards this sob.

[@carolynlariviere1653]

Thank you for locking this monster up for life. I pray that the family finds justice and can begin some type of healing. I feel so bad for her family and hearing their victim impact statements was heartbreaking.

[@dushfdhejsjdhdhehehf]

[@user-bs4oq9xv7p]

The way the monster put his head down shaking his head gently trying to look redeemable in front of the court made me sick because someone who had an ounce of real remorse or regret for what they did would have never through to murder someone so terribly brutally. The only thing he ever cared about was his freedom which he does not deserve. I pray he stays in prison until his last day. While this sense of justice will never be enough to fully heal the wounds her family has and will endure, I pray they and sweet and beautiful tristyn can rest more peacefully…

[@merierh.173]

He should’ve just given him 99 years, 25yr review shouldn’t be an option. They say he’s not developed, he knew what he was doing

He will never get out. No review board would ruled against this sentence given the details of this case.

Why his family would want him home again is baffling. Don’t they realize that no one is safe from him? No one, not even them. He is pure evil.

What a wonderful, thoughtful and caring officer of the court. I wish all judges considered their cases so thoroughly and awarded real justice as in this instance.

[@MsJobs-fc9jp]

This is a different kind of monster. To take an innocent girl's life close up and inflict 114 stab wounds with "Pokey" is unconscionable. To listen to her pleas and screams while watching her die should tell us all he's not salvageable. Who among us would like him to be our neighbor when he's 41? Not me!

[@demoneIephant]

You can tell the judge is struggling to even read this! Shocking case

[@delvivor2167]

So he could potentially be released after 25 years? That's disgusting. Should have been life WITHOUT parole!!!

[@roysayantani]

I think the review is mandatory for all juveniles

A lot of kids have troubling upbringings and majority don't murder and stab someone that many times. It was a thrill kill for him and he better never get out, he will do it again, he has the taste for blood. Dogs get put down once they have killed and he is a dog.

[@kathyohara6658]

There is nothing extenuating in viciously stabbing a 14 year old 114 times. A five year old child knows it is wrong to hurt someone. Nobody is so learning limited that they think slashing another human being is acceptable. We all have life/childhood traumas and issues, but we cannot use these to go around killing people who displease or disappoint us. If you are old enough to do the crime, take a life you are old enough to do the time and be removed from being a further threat to humanity.

[@hunterkenobi983]

But you can’t do that to every youth. If they are old enough for that, what else are they old enough for? 🤢 that’s why each case needs to be looked at individually and carefully

[@agreeneish]

25 years is a long time but I can’t believe any judge or parole board after reviewing the facts as this judge just did would release young Mr Fucci. Frankly the death penalty exists for this type of crime and individual.
