ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. — The teenage murderer of 13-year-old Tristyn Bailey will learn Friday morning if he will spend the rest of his life in prison.
Aiden Fucci, 16, faces a minimum of 40 years in prison for stabbing Tristyn 114 times in their St. Johns County neighborhood on Mother’s Day in 2021. Because he’s a juvenile, his sentence will be up for review after 25 years.

Tristyn’s family pleaded in their victim impact statements for Fucci to receive the maximum sentence. They do not believe he is remorseful and say the apology he gave when he pleaded guilty in February was a “lie.”
The sentencing hearing begins at 9:00 a.m. Friday and will be livestreamed on this web page.
