A California man who tortured his girlfriend on Christmas Eve and "wanted her to feel the pain" because he was convinced she was cheating on him was convicted in her brutal slaying following a day of jury deliberation.
In addition to first-degree murder, Saul Nava, 24, was also found guilty of kidnapping, torture, aggravated mayhem, and a slew of other charges in connection with the death of 24-year-old Alisen Takacs-Escobar at their Thousand Oaks, California apartment on Dec. 24, 2021, the Ventura County District Attorney's Office announced Tuesday.
