Authorities say 23-year-old Hannah Brim went missing in January 2016. She was five months pregnant at the time.
After an extensive months-long search, her body was later found in a swampy area of Alachua County.
Armas had a history of domestic battery and was in the Alachua County Jail on a domestic battery charge unrelated to Brim's disappearance when he was indicted for her murder.
Armas chose not to testify in his trial.
