Marisol Dumeng, 30, was found shot to death in her Bridgeport, Connecticut, home in the early morning hours of May 28, 2022. She was a mother of four. Authorities identified her 28-year-old ex-boyfriend, Glenn Pettway, as the primary suspect; Pettway had been out on a $1 million bond awaiting trial on a separate 2018 murder at the time. Dumeng had reported receiving threatening texts from Pettway and a protective order had been issued against him before he forced his way into her Knoll Place residence and shot her.

A manhunt for Pettway described him as armed and dangerous. He fled Connecticut with the assistance of 21-year-old Melanie Castro, traveling through North Carolina to Jackson, Tennessee. Law enforcement located him at a Jackson residence on June 2, 2022; a 12-hour standoff followed during which Pettway briefly held a 9-month-old infant hostage, released the child, barricaded himself, and then died by a self-inflicted gunshot. Castro was later arrested and charged in connection with aiding his escape, and her guilty plea and sentence were resolved in December 2023.

Does anyone have information about Marisol’s life in Bridgeport or knew her family that could help preserve her memory?
