A Northern California man has been found guilty of first-degree murder for beheading his ex-girlfriend with a samurai sword in the middle of a street in 2022.
The jury handed down their verdict Monday afternoon in a Redwood City courtroom.
They found Rafa Solano guilty of murdering 27-year-old Karina Castro in the middle of a street in San Carlos, a city in San Mateo County.
Officials say the crime happened in the street outside the victim’s residence during an argument over Snapchat messages.
It’s certainly more portable than a flamberge or partisan.
