US soldier gets 23 years for killing his pregnant wife with a machete and dumping her in the trash

A tragic incident unfolded last summer at the Schofield Barracks military base on Oahu, Hawaii, when U.S. Army soldier Pfc. Dewayne Johnson II took the life of his wife, Mischa Johnson, who was six months pregnant at the time. Johnson was sentenced to 23 years in prison after pleading guilty to voluntary manslaughter, obstruction of justice, and providing false official statements.

According to reports, Johnson confessed to hitting his wife with a machete during an argument, causing her death. He claimed that he did not intend to kill her but was overcome with emotion after she made hurtful remarks about their unborn child. In a desperate attempt to cover up the crime, Johnson dismembered his wife’s body with a chainsaw and disposed of the remains in garbage bags that he placed in a dumpster on the military base.

Despite reporting his wife missing and participating in search efforts, Johnson was eventually charged with her murder after incriminating evidence was found in their home. Prosecutors revealed that Johnson, originally from Frederick, Maryland, received the maximum sentence allowed by law. As part of his plea agreement, child sexual abuse image charges were dropped.

The sentencing included a reduction in rank to private, forfeiture of pay and allowances, and a dishonorable discharge from the Army. Johnson will serve his sentence in a military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. The case has been a source of immense pain for Mischa Johnson’s family, with her sister Marianna Tapiz expressing shock and sorrow over the tragic events.

Army prosecutor Lt. Col. Nicholas Hurd expressed hope that the legal proceedings would bring some closure and healing to the Johnson family and all those affected by the loss. While no amount of punishment can undo the devastating loss of Mischa and her unborn child, the acknowledgment of guilt and information provided by Johnson as part of the plea agreement may offer some solace to the grieving loved ones.

The heartbreaking story serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences of domestic violence and the importance of seeking help and support in times of crisis. As Mischa Johnson’s family grapples with the aftermath of her tragic death, they are focusing on cherishing the happy memories they shared with her and honoring her life in a positive light.
