Victor Chavez Sanchez Sr., charged with murdering 41-year-old Delfina Perez Chilel, had a history of domestic violence, Florida police said.
A Florida man who police say has a history of domestic violence stands accused of killing the pregnant mother of his two children before attempting to kill himself.
Relatives identified 41-year-old Delfina Perez Chilel in a GoFundMe as the four-month pregnant woman who was found dead on Nov. 12 inside her Hallandale Beach home. Her children’s father, Victor Chavez Sanchez Sr., 38, was arrested on Saturday and charged with two counts of second-degree murder.
According to a probable cause affidavit obtained by HuffPost, Chavez Sanchez admitted to police that he had killed Perez Chilel after they argued because he believed she had put pills into a glass of milk for him. A relative told police that Chavez Sanchez has schizophrenia and had not been taking his medication, according to authorities.
An attorney representing Chavez Sanchez didn’t immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. A judge has ordered that he undergo a mental health screening and receive “all appropriate medications.”
On Nov. 12, Hallandale Beach police were initially called to the school that the couple’s children attend after a staff member, who is also Perez Chilel’s relative, reported that she had missed pick-up, according to the probable cause affidavit. The relative told police that Perez Chilel was never late to pick up her kids.
