Nick Pasqual,<\/a> an actor who appeared in \u201cHow I Met Your Mother,\u201d<\/a> has been sentenced to 32 years to life for the attempted murder of his estranged girlfriend, L.A.-based makeup artist Allie Shehorn.<\/p>\n Following a jury trial, Pasqual was also convicted of counts of injuring a spouse or partner, first-degree burglary and rape, according to court documents. During the trial, Shehorn had visible scars on her hands and neck when she testified, per ABC<\/a>.<\/p>\n The incident occurred in May 2024, when Pasqual repeatedly stabbed Shehorn in her Shadow Hills home. Prosecutors said that the actor broke into Shehorn\u2019s home just before 4:30 a.m. on May 23, attacked her with a knife and fled California. <\/p>\n Days before the attack, Shehorn had filed a restraining order against Pasqual, detailing acts of sexual and physical assault. While the judge approved the order, it was unclear whether Pasqual had been served prior to the stabbing. <\/p>\n Christine White, Shehorn\u2019s friend and roommate, discovered the makeup artist lying in a pool of blood and called emergency services. Friends believe Shehorn was stabbed more than 20 times. Following the attack, Shehorn underwent emergency surgery and spent days in intensive care.<\/p>\n Pasqual was ultimately stopped by authorities at a border checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas, and extradited to Los Angeles. <\/p>\n The former couple met on the set of Zack Snyder\u2019s film \u201cRebel Moon,\u201d<\/a> where Pasqual worked as a background actor and Shehorn worked as a makeup artist.<\/p>\n
