阿拉斯加州前军人Zarrius Hildabrand杀妻藏尸排水沟被判实际服刑59年：另有25年缓期，服满三分之二才可申请假释
据阿拉斯加州法律厅（Alaska Department of Law）发布的新闻稿，阿拉斯加州 Anchorage 高等法院法官 Peter Ramgren 10月25日对24岁前军人 Zarrius Hildabrand 作出量刑：他因2023年8月枪杀21岁的妻子 Saria Hildabrand、并将遗体藏入排水沟，被判处合计84年监禁、其中25年缓期执行，实际服刑59年；服满实际刑期至少三分之二后才有资格申请假释。今年6月，陪审团裁定他一项二级谋杀与两项篡改物证罪名成立，其中二级谋杀判55年、两项篡改物证罪各判2年并接续执行。
案情方面，2023年8月6日凌晨，两人外出庆祝 Hildabrand 的21岁生日返家后，Saria 就其不忠问题与他对质，他在家中开枪击中她的头部。随后数日，他购买清洁用品与一只96加仑的垃圾桶转移遗体，把遗体放入一处公园的排水沟并浇上汽油；他还向警方谎报妻子失踪，并陪同家属、军方人员与警方一同搜寻。Saria 的遗体于2023年8月10日被发现。Hildabrand 案发时是驻埃尔门多夫-理查森联合基地（Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson）的战斗医务兵，Saria 本人也在阿拉斯加州国民警卫队接受战斗医务兵训练。
Ramgren 法官在量刑时表示，尽管陪审团未裁定一级谋杀，他认为被告系故意杀人，并指出被告在警方问话、参与搜寻期间及庭审作证中毫无悔意，「从未表现出对自己以外任何人的关心」。量刑听证上，Saria 的多名家属发言讲述她的为人及案件对家庭的打击；Hildabrand 本人未作陈述。本案由 Anchorage 警察局凶杀组侦办、陆军刑事调查司（Army Criminal Investigation Division）配合，由地区检察官 Brittany Dunlop 与助理检察官 Kaila Hurley 起诉。
Former Soldier Zarrius Hildabrand Sentenced to 59 Years to Serve in Alaska for Killing His Wife and Hiding Her Body in a Storm Drain, With 25 More Years Suspended
According to a news release from the Alaska Department of Law, Anchorage Superior Court Judge Peter Ramgren on October 25 sentenced Zarrius Hildabrand, 24, a former soldier, to a composite 84 years in prison with 25 years suspended, leaving 59 years to serve, for the August 2023 killing of his 21-year-old wife, Saria Hildabrand, whose body he hid in a storm drain. He will not be eligible for parole until he has served at least two-thirds of the active sentence. A jury in June had found him guilty of one count of second-degree murder, sentenced at 55 years, and two counts of tampering with physical evidence, sentenced at two years each and imposed consecutively.
On August 6, 2023, after the couple returned home from celebrating Hildabrand's 21st birthday, Saria confronted him over his infidelity and he shot her in the head at their home. Over the following days he bought cleaning supplies and a 96-gallon trash can to move her body, placed it in a storm drain at a park and poured gasoline over it. He then filed a false missing-person report and joined her family, military personnel and police in searching for her. Saria's body was found on August 10, 2023. Hildabrand was then a combat medic stationed at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson; Saria was herself training as a combat medic with the Alaska National Guard.
In sentencing, Judge Ramgren said that although the jury had not convicted Hildabrand of first-degree murder, he believed the killing was intentional, and noted the defendant's apparent lack of remorse through police interviews, the search for his wife and his testimony at trial, saying he never seemed to show concern for anyone other than himself. Several of Saria's family members spoke at the hearing about her character and the murder's impact on their family; Hildabrand offered no statement. The case was investigated by the Anchorage Police Department's Homicide Unit with the cooperation of the Army Criminal Investigation Division and prosecuted by District Attorney Brittany Dunlop and Assistant District Attorney Kaila Hurley.
