Summary

Although he’d promised one of his daughters to do better, 49-year-old Jose Fernando Corona couldn’t help but suspect his wife, 44-year-old Maria Santos Corona, of having an affair, though no evidence of such existed. He saw a curandera and attempted to use herbs and prayer to rectify the situation he’d most likely imagined. However, Jose could not let it go. Nothing was working in his mind. So, in April of 2010, he did the unthinkable. Instead of simply walking away, Jose murdered Maria in one of the most brutal ways imaginable. There’s no doubt he’s responsible, but since he fled to Mexico, and could be anywhere in Texas, Oklahoma, or Washington state at this point, Maria’s six children have yet to see the man who killed their mother – their father – brought to justice.

From CityofLewisville.com: On April 26, 2010, Jose Fernando Corona murdered his wife with a chainsaw. Investigators believe that Corona may have fled into Mexico on April 27, 2010 at Laredo, Texas. Corona has extended family members in Euless, Grapevine, Mineola, Austin, and Houston, Texas as well as in Oklahoma, Washington and Mexico.

Anyone with information related to this offense is asked to call the Lewisville Police Department Tip Line at 972.219.TIPS (8477) or Denton County Crime Stoppers at 800.388.TIPS (8477). You may also email crime tips to [email protected] or submit an anonymous tip by texting keyword "TipLPD" and your information to 847411.
