Texas woman sentenced to 30 years in prison for role in murder and body disposal of U.S Army soldier Vanessa Guillén

Cecily Aguilar pleaded guilty to accessory to murder after the fact and making false statements related to the killing of Vanessa Guillén in 2020.
Aguilar aided her boyfriend, Army Specialist Aaron Robinson, in dismembering and concealing Guillén's remains after he killed her with a hammer at Fort Hood.
Guillén's murder led to revelations of sexual harassment at the base and sparked a movement for reform in reporting abuse in the military.
Legislation passed in 2021 removed some authority from commanders and provided more options for survivors to report sexual harassment and assault.
Aguilar received the maximum 30-year prison sentence for her role in Guillén's murder and the concealment of her body.
