Yolanda Marodi, also known as Yolanda Olejniczak, has been arrested in Mexico in connection with the brutal stabbing death of her estranged wife, Rebecca “Becky” Marodi, a 49-year-old Cal Fire Captain.
The arrest took place a month after Becky Marodi was murdered outside the couple’s San Diego home, an incident that was caught on camera.
According to a warrant from U.S. authorities, video footage also captured Olejniczak crossing the Mexico border just hours after the February 17 killing.
Following her arrest, she was transferred to the custody of U.S. Marshals. The San Diego Sheriff’s Department confirmed that she would be processed and booked on murder charges.
Video Evidence of Cal Fire Captain Murder
Security footage from a Ring camera captured the harrowing moments of the attack. Becky Marodi, a captain with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire), could be heard pleading for her life.
In the video, she desperately cried out, “Please … I don’t want to die,” just before being fatally stabbed.
