Mishawaka, IN: Man sentenced for Mishawaka woman's murder

ST. JOESEPH COUNTY – A man who admits to killing his girlfriend earlier this year will spend up to 40 years in prison.

A St. Joseph County judge sentenced Jorge Huerta Cardenas to 40 years Wednesday morning.

He pleaded guilty last month to killing his live-in girlfriend, Kim White-Stout.

Her body was found strangled to death in a Cass County field.

A friend told police the two got into an argument on March 23rd when White-Stout told Cardenas to move out.

She was missing for several days before her body was found.
