A New Jersey kindergarten teacher whose body was found buried in a shallow grave was the victim of homicide, an autopsy revealed.
Luz Hernandez, 33, died as a result of blunt force trauma and compressions to the neck, the Hudson County Prosecution’s Office said in a statement. Hernandez’s death was initially described as “suspicious” before it was officially determined to be a homicide by the Regional Medical Examiner’s Office on Thursday.
