LIVE: CA v. Monica Sementilli: Celebrity Hairdresser Murder Trial - Day 28

Woodland Hills, CA: Monica Sementilli, 53, wife of Fabio Sementilli, 49, a renowned hairstylist and industry icon, stands accused of murder and conspiracy for orchestrating her husband's brutal murder on January 23, 2017, shortly before the couple was set to celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary.

Prosecutors allege that Monica, along with her lover, Robert Louis Baker, 62, plotted to kill Fabio for a $1.6M dollar life insurance payout. They also allege that Baker stabbed the hairstylist several times with a knife and that Austin stabbed the victim in the neck with a knife.

On June 14, 2017, Monica and Baker were pulled over in her Mustang under the guise of a traffic stop and were told that the car they were driving might have been stolen. According to the prosecution, the officers then handcuffed Monica and Baker and put them in the back seat of a police car, which was wired for sound so that they could be recorded.

Baker plead no contest in July 2023 to first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

Baker also admitted the special circumstance allegations of murder for financial gain and murder while lying in wait. He was immediately sentenced to life without parole, and Sementilli could face the same sentence if she is convicted of the same counts and allegations.

Fabio was a renowned hairstylist who worked with several high-profile clients, including:
• Jennifer Lopez
• Russell Crowe
• Jackie Chan
• Jennifer Love Hewitt

A third defendant, Christopher Austin, 39, was arrested late last year and plead guilty earlier this month to second-degree murder. Austin agreed to testify in exchange for a 16-year-to-life state prison term.

Monica remains behind bars.
