An illegal alien who arrived at an Illinois sanctuary just two weeks ago is accused of brutally decapitating his wife in a gruesome murder, DuPage County authorities said.
Baltazar Perez Estrada (33), an illegal immigrant from Mexico, was arrested. Paid This week, he stabbed his 26-year-old wife, Maricela Simon Franco, to death in DuPage County in front of their two children.
Prosecutors said Perez-Estrada had crossed the U.S.-Mexico border into Illinois just two weeks before Franco’s murder.
DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said Perez Estrada turned himself in after allegedly stabbing his wife “dozens of times” in the neck, head, hands and torso. It all happened right in front of the couple’s children.
The city of Berlin said Franco was stabbed so brutally that his neck was “almost” severed. Perez-Estrada was denied bail and remains in the DuPage County Jail. His next court date is April 25th.
