Crime Alert, I'm Nancy Grace, breaking crime news now.

Shannon Heyat breaks up with her boyfriend, Chance Donahoe, anything but amicable.

She has her friends take Donahoe's belongings to him, changes her locks, and install security cams.

Donahoe doesn't get the message and waits outside her Columbus Ohio apartment hoping to quote,

run into her.

Donahoe recognizes a male friend's car parked outside

Shannon's apartment and forces his way in.

Finding Shannon alone, he stabs her 30 times, abuses her corpse, then screws her front door shut and flees.

Hours later, Donahoe calls police from a gas station and confesses to the crime.

Nancy, it appears Donahoe was attempting to flee.

Donahoe was more than a hundred miles from Hyatt's apartment when he called police to turn himself in. At sentencing, Hyatt's mother

described how scared Shannon must have been in her final moments, saying to Donahoe, quote,

you were a foot taller and a hundred pounds heavier. You had all that time to change your mind, but you're a monster.

Chance Donahoe, 27, gets life behind bars for aggravated murder and gross abuse of a corpse.
