On April 17, 2019, 40-year-old Cuban immigrant Yasnai Moliner Yera was shot to death at the home she shared near West Palm Beach, Florida. She, and her 25-year-old twin brothers Yasmar Alfaro and Yusnier Alfaro-Yera, were killed during the same incident; Yasnai had been living in the United States about six years and her brothers had arrived roughly five months earlier.

Authorities say the suspect was Yasnai’s ex-boyfriend, 41-year-old Yuniel Martinez-De La Cotera. Deputies found him at the scene holding the couple’s 2-year-old son, who was unharmed. Investigators report Martinez-De La Cotera chased Yasnai outside and shot her in the driveway; the brothers were located inside, each with gunshot wounds to the head. Martinez-De La Cotera was taken into custody and charged with three counts of first-degree murder.

Yasnai had filed a petition for protection on April 9, 2019, saying she feared for her life after months of emotional and mental abuse following an accusation of infidelity on March 17. The protection hearing had been set for April 24. Friends and co-workers remembered Yasnai as a dedicated mother who worked at Stanton Optical in Palm Springs.

Did anyone in the area know the family or have information about the days before April 17?
