Yunique Puckett Dorame, 36, was found dead in the master bedroom of her home at 312 Chisholm Trail in Imperial after a house fire on January 17, 2017. The Imperial County Fire Department responded to the blaze, which investigators described as suspicious. Multiple agencies — including the Imperial Police Department, the Imperial County Sheriff’s Office-Coroner Division and the ATF — became involved in the inquiry.

Authorities reported Dorame’s vehicle was stolen the morning of the fire and later recovered in Brawley. An autopsy by the coroner’s office ruled the death a homicide, but officials have not released specific cause-of-death details while the investigation continues. No arrests have been announced and the Imperial Police Department is leading the active investigation.

If anyone has information about Dorame, her stolen vehicle that morning, or the events at 312 Chisholm Trail, please contact investigators.
