A motel manager in Dallas lost his life in a horrific machete attack this month, leaving his family devastated and raising urgent questions about how a man with multiple violent crime arrests remained free to kill.
Chandra Nagamallaiah (50), who ran the Downtown Suites motel with his wife, died after being attacked by 37-year-old Yordanis Cobos-Martinez on 10 September. Police say the Cuban national admitted to the killing during questioning. Court records reveal he had faced charges ranging from child sexual abuse to carjacking across Texas, California and Florida.
