Maritza Martin Munoz, a 33-year-old Cuban-American woman, was shot and killed on January 18, 1993, at Our Lady Queen of Heaven Cemetery in North Lauderdale, Florida, while visiting her daughter’s grave. Her ex-husband, Emilio Nuñez, 34 at the time, was at the cemetery being interviewed by a Telemundo crew about the November 1992 suicide of their 15-year-old daughter Yoandra, who had been discovered to be 13 weeks pregnant. According to accounts, Maritza arrived while the interview was under way; after initially leaving the grave site, Emilio returned with a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol and shot Maritza in the back of the head, then fired multiple additional shots as she lay on the ground. The shooting was captured on camera by the television crew.

Emilio fled the scene in his vehicle after the killing. Maritza left behind an 18-month-old son and was buried next to her daughter at the same cemetery. Does anyone have information about Maritza, her family, or that day at the cemetery that could shed further light on this case?
