The cases of femicide do not seem to stop, because far from ending this unfortunate wave of murdered women, every day there is a new and unfortunate case. On December 9, in the municipality of Cárdenas, Tabasco, the outrageous homicide of a pregnant 19-year-old girl who died after being shot twice in the head, apparently by her husband, was announced. .
According to the information shared by the local media, witnesses to the events say that the victim’s husband, identified as 20-year-old Luis Mario “N”, arrived at the home where he lived with his girlfriend Perla Lucero “N”. , who was eight months pregnant, but after an argument as a couple, the detonations of a firearm were heard.
The authorities arrived at the scene where they found the lifeless body of the young woman on the ground with a shot in the right eye. After cordoning off the area, according to previous investigations, everything pointed to a suicide. However, after the testimonies collected at the scene and after the report from the Forensic Medical Service (SEMEFO), they concluded that it was a femicide.
Given this, the police opened an investigation folder to gather the necessary evidence and proceed to arrest the alleged perpetrator, who everything seemed to indicate was the husband of the 19-year-old girl, who after arguing with her fled and nothing more was heard of him.
Two days after the unfortunate death of Perla Lucero, the community of Ranchería Santuario, in the municipality of Cárdenas, Tabasco, met to do justice by their own hand for her murder, ready to lynch Luis Mario “N” so that he pay for murdering his wife, who was also expecting his child.
Given the scandal that the residents of that town planned the lynching of the 20-year-old, Luis Mario’s parents preferred to deliver him themselves, since Adolfo, the father of the alleged femicide, claims to have been in the house at the time of the tragedy in which his son shot his daughter-in-law.
According to what he said, he noticed that the two young men were arguing and after hearing the shots, when he left the room he saw his daughter-in-law lying in the kitchen in a pool of blood, but his son was not there. As soon as the 20-year-old realized that his parents were willing to turn him over to the authorities, he resisted and tried to flee the place without success, since his relatives detained him and handed him over to the police. .
On December 11, Luis Mario “N” was handed over to the police. The young man will be prosecuted for the femicide of his wife Perla, with whom he was expecting a child and had lived together for a long time.
