Pablo Aguileramora, a 46-year-old California man from San Jose, became so obsessed with his estranged wife that he planted “trackers” in her car, applied for a job at her workplace, and sent more than 100 texts and voicemails to her before the situation turned deadly, prosecutors and police say.
Prosecutors accuse Aguileramora of stabbing his 45-year-old spouse to death on June 11, just two months after the couple separated following a 10-year marriage, according to court documents obtained by Law&Crime.
Aguileramora was already facing stalking charges in Santa Clara County for allegedly stalking his wife after his arrest in March. He had been out on release while those charges were pending when he committed the murder, according to the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office.
The DA’s office said in a press release announcing Aguileramora’s arrest, “On March 18, Aguileramora was arrested for stalking the victim, showing up at her work, slashing her car tires, implanting three electronic trackers in her car, and sending her more than 100 texts and voicemails.”
“He tried to get a job at the company where she worked,” the DA’s office added. “An Emergency Protection Order was granted and served. Less than three months later, the victim was dead.”
After the March arrest, Aguileramora’s estranged wife told police that she had seen him “outside on her back patio and sitting on the bench yelling her name out on multiple occasions,” according to court documents.
The documents allege, “The suspect had shown up to the victim’s workplace and asked her boss if he can get employment there and had shown up to the victim’s church.”
The conditions of Aguileramora’s release included a GPS ankle monitor, a no-contact order with the victim, and a requirement that he stay at least 300 yards away from her home and workplace.
Police say Aguileramora attacked his wife with a knife at a San Jose apartment where she was staying. She suffered multiple stab wounds and was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
Court documents say, “Before being transported by emergency medical services, [the victim] advised patrol that her husband, Pablo, had stabbed her.”
Aguileramora allegedly tried to stab himself after the attack. He now faces a murder charge and is scheduled to appear in court for a plea hearing at the end of August.
