Florida Man Convicted for Killing Pregnant Girlfriend Refusing Abortion, Faces Death Penalty

Donovan Faison, a 23-year-old man from Florida, was convicted of first-degree murder for killing his pregnant 18-year-old girlfriend, Kaylin Fiengo, after she refused his demand for an abortion. The murder occurred in November 2022 at Coastline Park, where Fiengo was found shot in the head in her car alongside an ultrasound image of their unborn child. Text messages revealed Faison's anger and pressure due to living with another woman who suspected him of cheating, and his threat to "crop her out" if she didn't terminate the pregnancy. Prosecutors described the killing as cold, calculated, and premeditated, emphasizing the clear evidence from Faison's threatening texts and actions. Faison also faces charges for killing the unborn child and burglary, and the jury voted 11-1 to sentence him to death, with the final sentencing decision pending. Family members of both victim and defendant have testified, highlighting the devastating impact of the crime and urging different sentencing outcomes.
