A Nebraska man was sentenced Tuesday to a minimum of 88 years and six months in prison for breaking into his ex-fiancée's home and killing her. Casey Kindt, 55, received the term for the February 2025 murder of 36-year-old Jamie Hagen in Seward.
Kindt pleaded no contest in February to eight felony counts and three misdemeanors, including second-degree murder, after prosecutors reduced a first-degree murder charge. Seward County District Judge James Stecker imposed the sentence, which could result in life behind bars. The term covers three related cases involving prior abuse of the victim.
