A South Florida man confessed to murdering his wife via Facebook. He then later shared a graphic image of her slain body for proof.
31-year-old Derek Medina informed his followers on Facebook, “Im going to prison or death sentence for murdering my wife… You will see me in the news.” He then explained that he had murdered Jennifer Alfonso because, “My wife was punching me and I am not going to stand anymore with the abuse.”
Here is a screen grab of the post:
At approximately the same time as the above post on his wall from yesterday morning, Medina shared a gory image of a woman believed to be Alfonso bent backwards against kitchen cabinets on the floor with her distorted face and arms covered in blood. The image was captioned, “Rip Jennifer Alfonso.”
The police have confirmed that Jennifer Alfonso’s deceased body was found in their home. After shooting his wife, Medina changed his clothes and drove to his family’s home to make a confession. He then drove to a South Miami police station where he informed a desk operator that he had just murdered his wife.
The bloody image remained up for a while, but Facebook has since removed Medina’s profile. In an official statement the social networking site stated:
“The content was reported to us. We took action on the profile – removing the content and disabling the profile, and we reached out to law enforcement. We take action on all content that violates our terms, which are clearly laid out on our site.”
Medina had written a number of e-books that he had posted online for sale with mostly odd and long titles including:
• How I Saved Someone’s Life and Marriage and Family Problems Thru Communication
• Humans Who Are Gifted and Can See the Supernatural Spirit Ghost World We Live in Called Ghost Haunted Adventures
• How a Judgmental and Selfish Attitude Is Destroying the World We Live in Because the World Is Vanishing Beneath Our Eyes
• Attention World Save Yourself
• World Just Ask Yourself Why We Are Living a Life Full of Lies and How I an Emotional Writer Made All of My Professional Dreams Come True Blocking Society’s Teachings
• If the World Ended Today How Would You React to Saving the World or Helping the World or Would It All Be Over for You
According to CBS Miami, Alfonso’s 10-year-old daughter from another marriage was found at the home unharmed when police arrived.
Medina has been charged with Murder 1st Degree and was not issued a bond.
