PASCO, Wash. (AP) — A 33-year-old Pasco man was sentenced Friday to life in prison without parole in the stabbing death of his girlfriend.

Gregorio Luna Luna was convicted of aggravated murder last month in Franklin County for the death of 21-year-old Griselda Ocampo Meza.

The Tri-City Herald reports (http://is.gd/I2xrA5 ) prosecutors said the stabbing followed a pattern of abuse and that the couple’s son, who was about 6 at the time, saw his mother attacked before her new boyfriend rushed him out of her Pasco apartment.
