(Cleveland, OH) -- A Cleveland area man will spend 25 years behind bars after pleading guilty to killing his ex-wife and burying her in front of their three-year-old child. Fahad Saeed was sentenced yesterday in Cuyahoga County Court shortly after reaching a plea deal. Prosecutors say the 28-year-old defendant strangled his former spouse Roaa Al-Dhannoon in her Lakewood apartment in October 2016. After a search for several months, investigators found the victim's body in May 2017. Prosecutors presented evidence showing him buying a shovel at a Walmart.
