Shocking Video Shows Mother-in-Law Shoot Former Beauty Queen Dead in Her Own Home

According to the Mexico City Attorney General’s office, Sánchez submitted a formal complaint to the authorities on April 16, which was the day after the murder, identifying Herrera Coriant as the perpetrator. The reasons for not reporting the crime at once remain unknown. At the moment, neither Sánchez nor his mother has been detained and investigated.

There are some unconfirmed reports according to which gunshots were heard by neighbors on April 15; in addition, Sánchez was spotted the same night in the living room with the baby in a shocked state. Another theory suggests that it was he who called the police late, after an hour or so.

It was only on April 16 that Sánchez reportedly called Flores’ mother, Reyna Gómez, and informed her about his mother having shot the latter’s daughter.

With the release of the video, public outrage increased even further since no suspects had been arrested one week after the incident. Under pressure, the Attorney General’s Office stated that the investigation was now considered a femicide.

Days following the murder, a Facebook post from what was believed to be Carolina Flores resurfaced online. Dated April 4th, the picture features Flores, her husband, and baby, and carries disturbing commentary: “Was this what I was so afraid of?” apparently alluding to her family life.
