A Texas man will spend the rest of his life in prison for killing, dismembering, and burning the remains of his ex-girlfriend, who he accused of stealing his late father’s military ID and Social Security card.

Andres Perez Tarnava III, 40, learned his fate Monday in the murder of Marisol Klingelhofer, 49, the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office announced in a press release.

“There is never a reason to use violence in any situation. Had the defendant not taken matters into his own hands, Marisol would be alive today,” Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales said in the press release. “Our office is always ready to seek justice and today’s verdict is a representation of that. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Marisol Klingelhofer.”
