2:52 am
>> i was going to act on it. >> reporter: so all that evidence presented by the prosecution wasn't about murder, it was about suicide. the drug-laced gatorade cocktail wasn't meant for christian, it was meant for pedro himself. >> did you drink the concoction in the gad raid bottle? >> yes, i did. >> reporter: obviously an unsuccessful suicide attempt. but the defense argued pedro's desire to end his own life was very real. pedro was combing the web for information about chloroform, rubbing alcohol and sleeping pills because he was planning his own death. he even brought along the shovel as part of his plan. >> at the beginning i was going to go and dig myself my grave. >> reporter: so the jury had to decide, who is pedro bravo? a killer without a conscientious or a love-sick boy. but before they got the case, the prosecutors gave something else to consider, some of the weirder evidence ever to come

2:54 am
through. you could see the tension on their faces as they began waiting for the verdicts. >> we all talked to each other. that day wasn't a day to celebrate whatever the jury had decided. >> whatever the jury decided, erica knew there would be sorrow all around. in fact, the jurors came back in less than four hours. and they found pedro bravo guilty of murder in the first degree. a verdict the family wanted. but there were no winners that day. about an hour later, pedro bravo faced the judge at his sentencing, insisting to the end -- >> i did not kill christian aguilar. i know in my heart what i did and i know god knows what i did. >> reporter: clearly unmoved, the judge seasonsed bravo to life without parol. he is appealing his conviction. the day after the verdict, christian's family made a heart wrenching visit to the place where their beloved son's body had been found. since his death they created the

christian aguilar search and rescue foundation. now christian's brother, alex, is embracing an opportunity that has a bittersweetness to it. he just started his freshman year at the university of florida in gainesville. >> i'm going through all the stuff that he went through. i started remembering how he was during that time. i guess now i've always followed his example in school and now that example is gone, so i have, i guess, just follow my own route. >> reporter: erica will be there, but moving ahead has been hard for her. she can't forget that fleeting moment when she fell in love with christian and then he was gone just like that. >> we weren't dating that long. we had the death talk. what happens if something happened tomorrow and he got hit by a car and he looked at me, he said, i don't know what i would do without you. i don't know what i would -- i looked at him and i was like, i'll tell you what you're going
2:56 am
to do. you're going to find somebody and you're going to live your life. >> reporter: do you ever get up in the morning just shaking your fist in outrage at the heavens. pedro, why did you do this to me? not just christian the victim. you're a victim too. >> it's so difficult to think of it that way. i would still give anything for christian to be here. there's not going to be another smile i see when i look up from working or something. it's not going to happen again. they're just memories. that's all for now. i'm lester holt. thanks for joining us. this sunday -- >> obviously, republicans had a good night. >> a democratic midterm melt doub. republicans seize the senate and leave the democrats tangled up in red. >> this election was a
