LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — The woman convicted of stabbing her mother to death last October has been sentenced to a minimum of 15 years in prison.
On Tuesday, Hend Bustami appeared in Clark County District Court to be sentenced on a second degree murder charge after she agreed to plead guilty. Records state the court also recommended Bustami be able "to receive any mental health treatment & programs while incarcerated."
On Oct. 6, 2022, police said they received a phone call from Bustami who told the operator "I think I killed my mommy". When police responded to the home they found a woman dead at the scene.
Grand jury documents state Bustami told Las Vegas police officers that she was trying to ask her mom for cigarettes & the 2 started arguing about their relationship. That's when Bustami said she followed her mom into the master bedroom & hit her over the head with an end table made of glass, grabbed a piece of broken glass & stabbed her mom.
No one was at the home whenever officers arrived. A neighbor's Ring camera spotted Bustami getting in a Honda Accord. She was located on Interstate 15 & was eventually stopped by California Highway patrol officers.
The month before the stabbing, Bustami was arrested at Harry Reid International Airport for reportedly skipping out on a restaurant tab & violating airport rules. At the time, she told police they were arresting her because she was "so good-looking".
