What happened to Claudia Haro?
In May 2000, Claudia and her brother hired a hitman to assassinate her ex-husband, Garrett Warren, who she was divorcing. The two were in a heated child custody battle, and the court awarded them joint custody, but Haro was not impressed with the decision.
Garrett was shot several times at point-blank by a stranger when he opened the front door of his home. He miraculously survived the attack, but he lost his right eye. Claudia allegedly hired another hitman to finish the job, but the second attack was never executed, and she was arrested in 2005.
Haro pleaded no contest to two counts of attempted murder and a principal firearm charge for the attempted assassination of her ex-husband. Her brother Manuel pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder. In April 2012, the court sentenced the actress to 12 years and 4 months, but she got an early release. She served at the California Institution for Women in Corona, California, until August 2019.
