An illegal immigrant that just crossed into the U.S. from Mexico about two weeks ago, is accused of viciously stabbing his wife to death in front of their two young children.

An illegal immigrant that just crossed the border into the U.S. illegally around two weeks ago, is accused of brutally stabbing his wife to death and nearly decapitating her – in front of their two children. On April 1, 2024, at approximately 11:30 a.m., Baltazar Perez-Estrada entered the Carol Stream Police Department in Illinois and informed authorities that he had stabbed his wife, Maricela Simon Franco, 26.

First and foremost, I offer my sincerest condolences to Maricela’s surviving family and friends on their loss and wish them strength as they continue their lives without the love and support provided by Maricela,' DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said in a statement. 'Not only has this senseless and brutal act removed Maricela from their lives, but it has robbed two young children of their mother.

On Thursday, the court granted the state's motion to detain Perez-Estrada pre-trial. He's been charged with five counts of first-degree murder and is due back in court on April 25.
