A Texas man<\/a> convicted of murdering his girlfriend and hiding her body under a couch has been sentenced to 40 years in prison, officials said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Anthony Young, 45, pleaded guilty<\/a> last month to the murder 65-year-old Laurel Schick in January 2021, the Tarrant County Criminal District Attorney\u2019s Office said.<\/p>\n

Young had met Schick at Narcotics Anonymous, and the couple eventually became engaged, according to officials. However, the wedding was called off after the couple spent most of Schick\u2019s money on illegal drugs.<\/p>\n

On the weekend when the wedding was supposed to take place, neighbors heard yelling and the sounds of glass and tables being broken in the couple\u2019s apartment, prosecutors said.<\/p>\n

Police responded<\/a> on the following Monday for a welfare check and found broken furniture and glass inside the apartment. Schick\u2019s body \u2013 bruised and bloodied \u2013 was found under a couch.<\/p>\n

Schick\u2019s cause of death<\/a> was listed as violent blunt force trauma to the head, the Tarrant County medical examiner said at the time.<\/p>\n

Young was high on methamphetamine<\/a> at the time of the murder, and detectives said he appeared to “have no sympathy, care or sadness in the fact that Schick was deceased” during an interrogation, KTVT reported.<\/p>\n

“You took an old woman and used her, \u2026 beat the hell out of her,” Sam McElwee, one of Schick\u2019s sons, told Young at the sentencing.<\/p>\n

Schick\u2019s other son, Thomas McElwee, told Young, “You stole so much from so many people. What did she do that was so bad that you had to bash her head in and cut her throat?”<\/p>\n

Her younger brother, Paul, wrote a letter, which was read in court and described his sister as a “beautiful soul.”<\/p>\n

“I ache inside that I was unable to protect her,” the letter read.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
