in her driveway, angrily demanded to know where she’d been. The argument escalated,
and the man eventually pulled out a gun, which he used to shoot Mendoza multiple times, killing her
instantly. Myers fled the scene and returned home, where he confessed to the the murder to his wife,
34-year-old Luisa Amanda Mendoza, the victim’s aunt. He turned himself into the authorities later
that same evening and willingly gave the police a full statement in which he admitted to shooting
Mendoza. Myers indicated that he’d suspected his lover of seeing another man and murdered
her out of sheer jealousy. He was held in custody without bail on a charge of second-degree murder.

the year 2020. Arrudasouza, aged 27 at the time, had gotten a tattoo of Carey Herrera’s
name on his hip only a month before the murder. While under the influence of illicit substances,
Arrudasouza got into a heated argument with his partner, and after being told
she’d found “a better man”, grabbed a knife and fork from the kitchen and stabbed her to
death. Arrudasouza called 911 and immediately confessed to the jealousy-fueled killing,
telling officers he’d ruined his life and deserved to be punished. He was arrested and held without
bond on a charge of second-degree murder. A trial hearing was scheduled to take place in early 2023.

knife, on September the 26th of 2018. She’d reportedly sent her former partner, 36-year-old
Christopher Ingram, several threatening texts on the night prior to the attack,
accusing him of dating another woman and stating: “I will hunt you all down. I will kill her, take
her life and mine. You can watch, I don’t care.” After a brief altercation with the young woman,
Ingram and his roommate, Kenneth Musselman, managed to flee the house and call 911. Deputy
Lance Turley, arrived at the scene a short time later and started to interview the victims,
at which point Collins began running towards them, holding a knife threateningly. Turley shot at the
suspect, hitting her in the chest. Emergency services were immediately called to the home,

fit of jealousy on August the 10th of 2022 in Coral Springs, Florida. Both of the vehicle’s
tail lights were busted and the paint was severely scratched, with the word “whore”
etched on the side. The victim, whose name wasn’t released to the media, reported the incident to
the authorities, stating that he suspected Sessler to have been behind the vandalism. The two of them
had recently broken up after dating for three years. Sessler had reacted angrily to a picture
the victim had posted on his Facebook page with a new girlfriend. When police interviewed the

incident. However, she was arrested after detectives discovered surveillance footage
that placed her at the scene of the crime, and she consequently faced a charge of criminal mischief.
#6-Audrey Stevenson
Scottish woman Audrey Stevenson, attacked her friend, Veronica Bannon, during her wedding
reception in Linlithgow on July the 28th of 2017. The bride accused Bannon of flirting
with her new husband, Scott Allan. Following a brief argument, 46-year-old Stevenson grabbed
Bannon’s hair and smashed her head into a door, knocking out two of her teeth. The couple were
arrested at the scene and consequently missed their flight to Mexico, where they’d planned
to spend their honeymoon. 55-year-old Allan denied any involvement in the attack, telling authorities
he’d been surprised by his wife’s actions. He was released after the prosecution accepted his
not-guilty plea. Although Stevenson initially claimed that she hadn’t assaulted Bannon,
she eventually agreed to plead guilty in exchange for a lesser sentence. She was fined $450,
and ordered to pay an additional compensation of $400 to cover the victim’s cosmetic procedures.
#5-Tosha Strahan
Tosha Strahan, a resident of Torrington, Connecticut, stabbed her live-in boyfriend,
David Vazquez, to death on February the 9th of 2014. 25-year-old Vazquez had attempted
to break up with Strahan, informing her that he was planning to get back with an
ex. An autopsy revealed that the victim died from a stab wound to the heart,
which punctured his aorta. Detectives discovered text messages Vazquez had exchanged with his
ex-girlfriend in which he told the unnamed woman that he was scared of breaking up with Strahan.
She’d allegedly threatened to murder him and harm herself if he ended their relationship. Strahan,
who was 24 at the time, called 911 after the attack, claiming to have accidentally injured
her boyfriend. When police arrived at the scene, they found the young woman attempting
to perform CPR on Vazquez. Detectives interviewed several witnesses who’d been
at the residence at the time of the murder. According to testimony collected by officers,
Strahan had told Vazquez “if I can’t have you, no one can” prior to attacking him. Although the
general consensus among witnesses was that the stabbing had been intentional, inconsistencies
in their statements delayed Strahan’s arrest. In 2018, she pleaded guilty to first-degree
manslaughter and was sentenced to 15 years behind bars, followed by five years probation.
#4-Fatima Fardous
British woman Fatima Fardous, of Bradford, West Yorkshire, violently attacked her boyfriend,
Mirza Raza, in April of 2016, after suspecting him of being unfaithful. 29-year-old Fardous had
become enraged after noticing that Raza had gotten a shave and a haircut. She reportedly believed the
grooming to be proof that he was seeing another woman. She’d called him repeatedly throughout the
day in question, leaving threatening messages, and even trashed his apartment while he was at
work. The couple began arguing upon Raza’s return home. At one point, Fardous lunged at
her boyfriend, aiming a kitchen knife in the direction of his chest. Raza stepped aside,
and the knife instead landed in his arm with such force that the handle broke off. Fardous attempted
to grab a second knife, but the victim managed to flee the scene and contact the authorities before
the violence could continue. Fardous was arrested, but denied each of the charges levied against her.
Much to the court’s surprise, Raza supported her claims of innocence while testifying,
stating that the stabbing had been an accident. Fardous was ultimately found guilty anyway,
and was consequently sentenced to four and a half years in prison.

21-year-old Florida resident Gabrielle Nunez lashed out in violence against the father of
her child after answering a phone call from his girlfriend in July of 2019. The man,
who hasn’t been named, had reportedly been intimate with Nunez earlier on the evening
in question and had fallen asleep next to her in bed. When the victim’s phone rang,
Nunez answered it, and was confronted by his girlfriend, who asked what she was
doing in his apartment. Nunez woke the man up, and began arguing with him as she placed
their child in a stroller. She then grabbed a knife and lunged at him. He retreated into
the bathroom and locked himself inside, while Nunez repeatedly stabbed the door and shouted
at him from the other side. She eventually managed to gain access to the bathroom,
but was disarmed by the victim, and restrained on the floor until police arrived at the scene. She
was arrested and charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.

#1- Armando Barron
On September the 19th of 2020, 32-year-old Armando Barron lured his wife’s lover, Jonathan Amerault,
into a lethal trap after discovering evidence of their affair. Barron caught his partner,
33-year-old Britany, exchanging flirtatious texts with the victim, who was aged 25 at the time. He
subsequently posed as his wife and arranged to meet Amerault at Wayside State Park in Rindge,
New Hampshire. Upon Amerault’s arrival, Barron forced him into a car before gunning him down.
The autopsy report revealed the presence of defensive wounds on the victim’s arms and hands,
indicating there was some sort of physical struggle in the moments before the shooting.
According to Britany’s testimony, Barron violently beat her and forced her to drive over 190 miles to
a remote campsite, while he followed behind in another vehicle. When they got to their
destination, he allegedly pressured Britany into beheading her lover’s corpse and disposing of
the body. Fish and Game officers discovered the remains several days later. Britany agreed to
testify against her husband and pleaded guilty to three counts of falsifying evidence. Barron was
ultimately found guilty of 13 counts, including criminal solicitation for murder and assault,
kidnapping, and first-degree murder. Presiding judge Elizabeth Leonard sentenced the culprit
to life in prison without the possibility of parole plus an additional 45 to 135 years.
