Laura Ponce waited almost two years to hear Victor Acuna-Sanchez admit that he killed her daughter.

On Monday morning, Acuna-Sanchez pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to 25 years in prison. Speaking in a quiet voice and with his back to the Carroll County, Arkansas, courtroom, he admitted to killing his ex-girlfriend Laura Aceves and called the act a "mistake," according to several people present.

On New Years Eve 2012, Aceves was shot in the head and left to die with her 4-month-old baby lying by her side. Her murder followed a string of reported assaults at the hands of her abusive ex-boyfriend.
