Aaron Trejo Sentenced To 65 Years In Fatal Stabbing Of Breana Rouhselang Killed After ‘Waited Too Long’ To Get Abortion

MISHAWAKA, IN. (THECOUNT) — Aaron Trejo was sentenced to 65 years for the murder of Breana Rouhselang.

According to court documents, Trejo admitted to fighting with Rouhselang about their unborn child before fatally stabbing her in the heart. He put her in a black plastic bag, threw her in a dumpster and tossed her phone and the knife he used to stab her into a river.

When police asked Trejo why he stabbed Rouhselang, he said she “waited too long” to get an abortion by the time she told him that she was pregnant, reports WANE.

The 16-year-old football player from Indiana was accused of murdering Rouhselang, a classmate and cheerleader, who was six months pregnant, police said

Police discovered Rouhselang’s body in a dumpster behind a restaurant near her Mishawaka, Indianapolis home on Sunday morning after her family reported her missing, sources reported.

Rouhselang and Trejo knew each other from the school’s football team, police said, without elaborating on their relationship. Rouhselang was the football team’s manager, her family said.

Shortly after finding the body, police took Aaron Trejo, a classmate of Rouhselang’s at Mishawaka High School, into custody on a preliminary murder charge. He was scheduled to be charged as an adult on Monday morning, police said Sunday.

Police did not announce an official cause of death but say Rouhselang was shot, stabbed, or both, WSBT reported. An official autopsy was scheduled for some time this week. source

Meg Sauer, chief communications officer for the northern Indiana school district, said the school is doing its best to support students following the death.

“We’re just focusing on healing the kids,” Meg Sauer, chief communications officer for the northern Indiana school district, told the Indianapolis Star.
