A former beauty queen has been murdered in her affluent Mexico City apartment, allegedly executed by her mother-in-law, who was later caught on camera delivering a spine-chilling justification for the slaughter.
Carolina Flores Gomez, 27, was fatally shot in the Polanco district on 15 April 2026. Authorities have named her mother-in-law, Erika María Herrera, as the primary suspect in a case that has horrified the nation and exposed a dark undercurrent of domestic obsession.
