   A Minnesota man has been convicted of killing his girlfriend by beheading her   
   on a public street.   
      
   On Thursday, Alexis Saborit, 44, was found guilty of the July 2021 murder of   
   America Thayer, 55, following a court hearing on January 25, during which he   
   "waived his right to a jury trial," read court records obtained by PEOPLE from   
   the Minnesota    
   Judicial Branch.   
      
   Saborit was found guilty of the "felony count of Murder – 1st Degree –   
   Premeditated," added the court documents. His review hearing is scheduled for   
   June 1.   
      
   ABC News reported that County Attorney Ron Hocevar anticipates Saborit will   
   now be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.   
      
   "The Court finds proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Defendant caused the   
   death of America Thayer," Judge Caroline H. Lennon stated in the court records.   
      
   She added that witnesses saw "Thayer alive with Defendant in her Chrysler 300   
   sedan at about 2:00 p.m. in Shakopee's Memorial Park. Approximately 30 minutes   
   later, multiple witnesses saw a man attacking a woman in a Chrysler 300 sedan   
   in the intersection    
   of Spencer Street and Fourth Avenue in Shakopee, roughly a mile from Memorial   
   Park."   
      
   Other witnesses then "saw a man standing outside of the open passenger door   
   striking the victim with a hand weight," she continued, adding that they "saw   
   the man chopping at the front passenger seat with a large knife and then pull   
   a decapitated body and    
   severed head out of the vehicle."   
      
   One of the witnesses "drove by again and saw a body and severed head on the   
   ground outside of the vehicle."   
      
   "The Defendant used a dumbbell to strike Thayer in the head and a machete to   
   decapitate her," continued Lennon. "The nature of the assault is proof of the   
   Defendant's intent to cause Thayer's death."
