A Florida jury will decide whether a man who murdered his girlfriend because she refused to get an abortion will be sentenced to death or spend the rest of his days in prison.

Donovan L. Faison, 23, was convicted Monday of first-degree murder and the killing of an unborn child in the 2022 death of 18-year-old Kaylin Fiengo in Sanford, which is about 25 miles north of Orlando, prosecutors said in a press release . The sentencing phase of the case is scheduled to begin on Wednesday.

Faison had "erupted" in anger when Fiengo sent him a photo of two positive pregnancy tests. The defendant accused her of lying before sending her a text that said "Abortion!!!," prosecutors said. The dad-to-be "felt pressured" because he was living with another woman who suspected him of cheating.
