<p class="mol-para-with-font">A Puerto Rico woman found guilty of hiring a hit man to kill her wealthy Canadian husband more than a decade ago was sentenced to life in prison on Friday.<br />
Aurea Vazquez Rijos cried as a federal judge issued the sentence and ordered that she be transferred to a prison in Fort Worth, Texas. Judge Daniel Dominguez said he believed the jury&#8217;s guilty verdict over Vazquez&#8217;s statement that she is innocent.<br />
Her defense attorneys plan to appeal in a case that led to an international manhunt.</p>

<p class="imageCaption">Aurea Vazquez Rijos, who was accused in 2008 for the murder of her husband, Canadian Adan Anhang Uster in 2005, was jailed for life on Friday<br />
Vazquez had been charged with offering a man, Alex Pabon-Colon, $3 million to kill Uster, a real estate developer..<br />
He was stabbed repeatedly and hit in the head with an object while walking with Vazquez through the historic part of Puerto Rico&#8217;s capital in September 2005, just 12 hours after prosecutors said Anhang had asked for a divorce.<br />

If Anhang died, it was agreed his wife would receive $8million.<br />

Up until this point, generous Anhang showered Vazquez-Rijos with lavish gifts including a car, an apartment and a business in Old San Juan called &#8216;The Pink Skirt.&#8217;<br />
Six months after Anhang&#8217;s death, Vazquez sued his parents seeking $1 million in damages and $8 million from his estate.<br />
She later left for Florence, Italy and was arrested in June 2013 after flying from Italy to Spain.<br />

She and her one-month-old baby were extradited to Puerto Rico two years later, leaving behind twin daughters she had with a man in Italy.<br />
Also sentenced to life Friday was Vazquez&#8217;s sister, Marcia Vazquez Rijos. Still pending is the sentencing for an ex-boyfriend of hers, Jose Ferrer Sosa.<br />
The main suspect, Alex Pabon Colon, pleaded guilty 10 years ago to killing Anhang and cooperated with prosecutors.</div>

Among those who also testified during the trial last year was a man who sued for wrongful conviction after he was found guilty of killing Anhang and spent eight months in jail. He was released when Pabon was charged as federal authorities took over the case.<br />
Aurea Vazquez-Rijos, who in 1997 was a finalist for Miss Puerto Rico Petite orchestrated the whole killing by setting a trap for her husband.<br />
She arranged to meet him at a restaurant located in the vibrant, historical Old San Juan neighborhood. The couple ostensibly were there to discourse their impending divorce.<br />
During the trial one of Áurea&#8217;s lawyers, Francisco Adams, Ramos indicated that the victim had promised the defendant to compensate her economically if they divorced, but that she preferred to remain married.<br />
On the day of the murder, Pabon-Colon then received the green light from Ferrer-Sosa and was given the restaurant location where he lay in wait for the young millionaire.<br />
After the married couple had finished their meal at the restaurant called Dragonfly, Aurea Vazquez-Rijos accompanied Anhang to a nearby parking garage before Pabon-Colon repeatedly stabbed and bashed the victim&#8217;s head with a cobblestone at the corner of San Justo and Luna streets.</div>

On October 12, 2005, Jonathan Roman-Rivera was arrested at the Pink Skirt Club after a witness picked him out.<br />
He was found guilty on or about October 2007, and sentenced to 105 years in prison.<br />

<p class="mol-para-with-font">In June 2008, Roman-Rivera was released from prison and Pabon-Colon was arrested and confessed to investigators. On June 4, 2008, a Federal Grand Jury in the District of Puerto Rico indicted Aurea Vazquez-Rijos and Pabon-Colon, who pleaded guilty on June 13, 2008.<br />
Jose Ferrer-Sosa also participated in setting up the 2005 murder of Adam Anhang, a Canadian businessman who was married to his girlfriend&#8217;s sister.<br />
Aurea Vazquez-Rijos did not comply with the investigation into her husband&#8217;s death, instead she filed a $1million civil lawsuit seeking damages against Anhang&#8217;s family, as well as millions more from his estate.<br />
Charged by a United States grand jury for her millionaire husband&#8217;s death, Aurea Vazquez-Rijos fled to Italy in 2008, where she sought residency that would have protected her because Italy does not extradite suspects who face the death penalty.<br />
Her relationship with an air-conditioner contractor in Florence resulted in the August 18, 2008 birth of her now 10-year-old twin girls.<br />
She would lose custody of her twin daughters once their father and his family got news that she was wanted to the murder of her husband.<br />
In 2013, Aurea Vazquez-Rijos flew to Madrid where she was arrested by Spanish law enforcement agents.<br />
As part of the extradition process, the Spanish government agreed to turn the Puerto Rican beauty queen on the condition that she wouldn&#8217;t be subjected to the death penalty.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">Prosecutors solidified their case based on the key testimony of Dereck Osterman-Kim, Pabon-Colon&#8217;s best friend, who tearfully said in court that his buddy called in for a favor, asking him to pick him up before he confessed to the murder.<br />
