Monica Sementilli Trial (Pt 40) | Sheila Salehial

Day 17 – February 25, 2025
Sheila Salehial and her husband, Ricardo, were members of the LA Fitness where Rob Baker had managed the racquetball league. In 2016, they began to go out with Monica and Rob as a couple and took a couple trips to Las Vegas together. Even though she knew Monica was married, she apparently brushed it aside. According to Sheila, Monica never mentioned her husband or daughters before or after the murder.

Summary of the Case: #MonicaSementilli is charged with conspiring to murder her husband of almost 20 years, #FabioSementilli, a famed Hollywood hairdresser. Monica had been living a double life, carrying on a steamy affair with a man named #RobertBaker when the 2017 stabbing death occurred while Fabio was relaxing on his back deck. Baker himself, along with another man, Chris Austin, were responsible for carrying out the brutal attack. Baker pled no contest to the charges of 1st degree murder & conspiracy in 2023 and is serving life. Austin was arrested late last year and plead guilty just earlier this month (Jan 2025) – He will be testifying in exchange for a 16-year-to-life prison sentence.
