GRANTS PASS — A 26-year-old Grants Pass man has been sentenced to life in prison on an aggravated murder charge for stabbing his 17-year-old girlfriend 220 times.
Nathaniel Geith pleaded guilty Thursday but didn’t explain why he killed Savanna Albertson.
Police said he apparently had used methamphetamine. He told investigators after the June 2010 killing that Albertson came at him with a knife, and he snapped and “went psycho.”
At first, authorities said that Albertson was stabbed 33 times, but prosecutor Lisa Turner said an autopsy showed the much higher number of wounds.

We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
