New Details from Selena's Autopsy Report Emerge 30 Years After Her Death
A devastating blow has been dealt to Yolanda Saldívar, the woman who murdered Tejano music superstar Selena Quintanilla-Pérez 30 years ago. According to a recent autopsy report review, the circumstances surrounding Selena's death have shed new light on the circumstances that led to her tragic demise.
In 1995, at just 23 years old, Selena was gunned down by Saldívar, who had been the former president of her fan club. An autopsy performed mere hours after her death revealed a grim picture: Selena's death was caused by exsanguinating internal and external hemorrhage, resulting from a perforating gunshot wound to the thorax. The bullet had entered the singer's back, pierced through her ribs, and injured her subclavian artery before finally exiting her body.
The coroner's report at the time had described Selena's death as a result of massive bleeding due to the severe injury sustained by the bullet. This new information serves as a poignant reminder of the tragic events that unfolded 30 years ago.
Saldívar initially claimed the shooting was an accident, but she was ultimately convicted of first-degree murder in October 1995 and sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Her parole request was denied earlier this year, and she will next be eligible for parole in 2030.
A new Netflix documentary, Selena y Los Dinos: A Family Legacy, has shed more light on the life and tragic death of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez. The film features never-before-seen footage of her life before and after fame, providing a deeper insight into the legacy and story that continues to captivate fans worldwide.
As the world continues to grapple with the complexities surrounding Selena's death, it is clear that the wounds inflicted 30 years ago still linger. While some closure may have been reached through new information, the impact of her tragic passing on those who loved her remains a profound and lasting legacy.
