In September 2009, 17-year-old Andy Rodriguez stabbed fellow classmate Juan Rivera five times using a box cutter, using enough force to even pierce his heart. Security footage of the incident shocked many in the quiet and affluent town of Coral Gables. The attack escalated from an argument in which Rodriguez had confronted Rivera regarding the former’s girlfriend. Classmates stated that Rodriguez had developed strong feelings of jealousy after Rivera had accepted rides to school from his girlfriend. Rodriguez was arrested shortly after the incident and was denied bond. In 2011, a jury found Rodriguez to be guilty of second-degree murder. He was sentenced to 40 years in prison and 10 years of probation.
