Orlando police say they discovered "significant evidence" of violence when Runyleidy Medina-Pacheco was reported missing, but no suspect was named at the time.
A Florida woman was arrested in Connecticut on Wednesday and accused of killing her roommate after reporting her missing two years ago, Orlando police announced.
Gisselle Victoria-Gonzalez, 42, was taken into custody on charges of second-degree murder, tampering with evidence and grand theft.
The charges come about two years after the disappearance of Runyleidy Medina-Pacheco, then 42.
Medina-Pacheco was from the Dominican Republic and was in Orlando on an extended vacation, NBC affiliate WVIT reports. Victoria-Gonzalez reported Medina-Pacheco missing to Orlando police on Dec. 27, 2022 and stated that she had not seen her since Christmas.
