Santo Domingo. – The spokesperson for the National Police, Diego Pesqueira, clarified that Nelson Félix Miranda, the man who starred in the tragedy that occurred in the El Millón sector, where he murdered his wife and mother-in-law before taking his own life, is not listed as an active or retired member of the Armed Forces or the National Police, and has no registered criminal record.
Pesqueira explained that the preliminary information gathered at the scene confirms that the event was an unfortunate episode of domestic violence that shocked three generations of the same family.

The police spokesperson reported that a letter attributed to the perpetrator was found at the scene, the contents of which have not been revealed because it is part of the investigation and out of respect for the family. "We know he left a note, but we cannot confirm the mental state he was in when he wrote it," Pesqueira pointed out. He added that the authorities of the Homicide Investigations Department continue to delve into the emotional, psychological, and family context of the aggressor to determine the causes that led him to commit the tragic event. The event has generated consternation and sadness in the community of El Millón, where neighbors describe the family as quiet and close-knit people. The National Police reiterated its call to the population to seek professional help in the face of family conflict situations, reminding that there are channels for psychological assistance and support for victims of domestic violence.
