   A Florida man aware of his wife's plan to divorce him and "take   
   everything, including their son," stabbed her to death and then   
   placed her body in the trunk of his car before telling a   
   neighbor he'd done so, later surrendering to police after a   
   standoff.   
      
   The man, Gerard Stewart, 49, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to   
   killing 42-year-old Julie Ann Stewart, hours before he was   
   scheduled to go on trial for her murder.   
      
   The incident on June 15, 2018, at the couple's Jacksonville home   
   unfolded after Julie had filed for divorce two months earlier,   
   in April 2018, reports First Coast News.   
      
   Stewart now faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced at a   
   later date.   
      
   The couple had been married for 20 years when Julie told her   
   husband she was leaving him, reports News4Jax.   
      
   The neighbor who heard Stewart confess called the Jacksonville   
   Sheriff's Office, the state attorney's office confirmed in a   
   news release obtained by PEOPLE.   
      
   Officers arrived as Stewart was pulling his car out of the   
   garage. He stopped the car and went back inside the house,   
   launching a three-hour standoff with SWAT team members, reports   
   The Jacksonville Times-Union.   
      
      
      
   An arrest affidavit obtained by First Coast News alleged that   
   Stewart subsequently downed a large number of pills in an effort   
   to end his own life.   
      
   Officers were able to safely remove the couple's then 9-year-old   
   boy from the home before his father emerged and was taken into   
   custody, reports the Times-Union.   
      
   The state attorney's office says that after his arrest, Stewart   
   "told officers he killed his wife by stabbing her two to three   
   times, but an autopsy revealed 13 wounds, including her throat   
   being cut."   
      
   "Stewart told officers his wife told him she was going to take   
   everything, including their son, from him in their upcoming   
   divorce," according to the state attorney's office. "He then   
   told them that after killing his wife, he wrapped her inside   
   trash bags secured with tape and placed her in the trunk of his   
   vehicle. The investigation revealed text messages that showed   
   Stewart knew of his wife's plans several days before the crime."   
      
   Stewart previously was tried for first-degree murder in the   
   case, but jurors deadlocked while still finding him guilty of   
   tampering with evidence in the death of his wife, reports   
   News4Jax.   
      
   His guilty plea this week to second-degree murder came as his   
   retrial was set to begin.
