translated from Spanish: Jacqueline and her daughters were killed after years of violence

This December 9, Jacqueline Alba and her two daughters, aged 1 and 3, were found lifeless inside an address in Naucalpan, State of Mexico. All three were killed by Peter “N”, who was the father of the girls and former partner of the young woman.
The man poisoned his daughters, then strangled and maimed Jacqueline with a grinder, and eventually committed suicide.
The events occurred at a home in the San José Poza Honda colony, where Jacqueline and Pedro lived for four years in which, according to the young woman’s family, she was the victim of violence on multiple occasions, and every time she left the house he threatened to take away her daughters, Brenda and Sofia, which is why she always returned to her side.
For more than 20 days, Peter had taken the girls. Last Sunday, he quoted Jacky at home, so he could see them and they could talk about their relationship, and that was the last thing his relatives knew.

Sayuri, Jacky’s stepmother, told Political Animal that it was until Monday at noon when they learned of what happened, when he appeared to the Public Prosecutor’s Office in Naucalpan to report the young woman missing, as the night she came to see her daughters stopped answering her cell phone.
“On Sunday we didn’t look for her because we thought she was back with him for the girls. On Monday, when we went to report her missing because we didn’t know if something had happened to her there with him or on the street, we were informed that her partner had killed them,” he said.
Years of violence
Jacqueline was 14 when she went to live with Pedro. Before that, “he was very cheerful, he liked to get dressed.”
However, her relationship with Peter changed her life completely: she soon got pregnant with her first daughter and went to live with him at his family’s house, where according to Sayuri “they verbally insulted her, one of her brothers-in-law harassed her, checked her underwear and sometimes even spied on her in the bathroom.”
So he decided to go back to his mother’s house, and had even returned to school. It was then that Peter first removed the only daughter they had then, and under the threat that if he did not return with him he would take the girl away, she returned.

Before long, she learned she was pregnant again, but he took her to an abortion, “because i’m sure she had been with others when they were separated.”
In tears, Sayuri explained that she and Jacky’s mother learned of it and planned to denounce Peter for forcing her to have an abortion, but it wasn’t long before she abused her again, and that rape became pregnant.
As the violence against him continued, Jacqueline decided to leave the house where she lived with Pedro again. On 30 September he went to the town hall of Naucalpan to draw up an act to denounce the abuse.
A few weeks later, Pedro’s mother asked him to let him see the girls and take them for a walk. She agreed and never saw her daughters again, because they hid them again.
While separated, Jacqueline determined that she was willing to get ahead with her daughters, and had already found work, cleaning a work.

According to versions of Jacky’s family, the bodies of the four family members were found with a letter written by Peter, in which he asked to be watched and buried together, “because he loved his family.”
On the case, the Mexican State Prosecutor’s Office informed Political Animal they have no history of reporting by the young woman, as she only reported the assaults she suffered on municipal authorities.
Although the authorities are tending to Jacqueline’s family, Sayuri reported that, so far, they have not been given the reports of how the authorities were alerted to what happened, so they continue to wait for clues to find justice for the young woman.
According to figures from the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System, from January to October 2019 95 research folders for the crime of femicide were opened in the State of Mexico.
In addition, two Gender Violence Alerts are active in the state, due to the violence of the entity, and the disappearances of women.
