How I Met Your Mother star Nick Pasqual was found guilty of attempted murder on Friday after attacking his girlfriend<\/a> two years ago.<\/p>\n The actor, 36,who is best known for appearing in the US sitcom episode, Field Trip, will be sentenced at a later date but faces up to life in prison.<\/p>\n As well as attempted murder, he was also found guilty of first-degree residential burglary with a person present, and injuring a spouse, cohabitant, fianc\u00e9, boyfriend, girlfriend or child\u2019s parent.<\/p>\n In May 2024, Pasqual broke into the home of his estranged girlfriend, Allie Shehorn, and stabbed her 20 times in a brutal attack before fleeing the scene and attempting to head to Mexico<\/a>.<\/p>\n At the time, he already had a restraining order taken out against him following an alleged assault in January involving hitting her with a belt and an alleged sexual assault in April of that year.<\/p>\n Ultimately, he was caught in Texas and brought back to California<\/a> to face justice.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t In court, the targeted makeup artist (who has worked on major movies such as Babylon) recounted the terrifying incident.<\/p>\n She said: \u2018I locked the door, and he just started punching holes in that door and broke that open, and I just ran into the bathroom because I thought there was another lock on that door.\u2019<\/p>\n After Pasqual left the scene, she was found by her roommate Christine White, who had previously recounted that she \u2018acted fast when she found Allie bleeding out\u2019. <\/p>\n \t\t \u2018I found her and I had to go into the bedroom where it\u00a0happened. That wasn\u2019t a pretty sight. <\/p>\n \u2018This\u00a0is not the kind of thing that should happen to anybody. You don\u2019t think this is ever going to happen to you,\u2019 sheshared with KTLA<\/a>\u00a0at the time.<\/p>\n According to a GoFundMe set up for Allie, she was admitted to the hospital in critical condition and spent over a week in the hospital after she almost died due to her injuries. To this day, she bears the marks of the attack, including scarring on her neck.<\/p>\n \t\t In 2024, Shehorn told the Daily Mail: \u2018I just hope that there\u2019s justice served. People should know that this shouldn\u2019t happen, and he can\u2019t get away with it,\u2019 vowing to attend every court hearing.<\/p>\n In the interview, she added that she was \u2018dealing with permanent damage\u2019 after the attack and \u2018can\u2019t go back completely to how I was\u2019. At the time, she shared her hopes of returning to her profession despite injuries to her hands and vision.<\/p>\n \u2018That\u2019s the goal. I still don\u2019t have feeling back in my hands and partial vision loss that I can\u2019t get back.\u2019<\/p>\n \t\t Following the attack, District Attorney George Gasc\u00f3n also shared a statement condemning Pasqual\u2019s behaviour.<\/p>\n He said: \u2018My thoughts and heartfelt sympathies are with the victim in this horrific incident.<\/p>\n \u2018Our office, including our Bureau of Victim Services, extends our support and resources to her as she embarks on the long and difficult journey of healing from both the physical and emotional trauma inflicted upon her.<\/p>\n \u2018This heinous incident is a stark reminder of the dangers of domestic violence. We will ensure that the individual responsible for this egregious act is held accountable for their actions.\u2019<\/p>\n As well as How I Met Your Mother, Pasqual has appeared in dozens of other onscreen projects, including American Gangster: Trap Queens, High Mystery and Archive 81.<\/p>\n Got a story?<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk<\/a> entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff<\/a> page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n Arrow Arrow Arrow![\"Nick](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/SEI_296337865-8e02.jpg\")
