Police Say No Evidence of Domestic Violence in Woman’s Murder

Police are waiting for the autopsy results on Wendy Mendez, a thirty-six-year-old from Concepcion Village. She was found unconscious on Sunday, March ninth, and sadly passed away last Friday. On Monday, ACP Hilberto Romero mentioned that investigators were exploring the possibility of a domestic issue being involved. However, today, Commissioner of Police Chester Williams stated that there’s no evidence to support that theory.

“We’re still awaiting the post examination to be conducted and once that is done, then we’ll be able to ascertain the definitive cause of death, and then we go from there. I don’t know if there’s any evidence to the fact that the husband had beaten her. We’re still investigating how she got the injury that she exhibited when she went to the hospital.”

“Is the husband cooperating with you all?”

“I believe that he has been interviewed by the police, yes, but there was nothing of substance obtained during that interview.”

“And had there been any previous reports at this household for the domestic violence?”

 

Chester Williams

“Not to my knowledge, no.”
