The still-at-large suspected murderer accused of stabbing to death her California fire captain wife allegedly texted a pal saying she “hurt her” for dumping her, according to an arrest warrant.
Yolanda Marodi, 53, texted the “known associate” soon after she was seen on surveillance footage chasing her wife, Cal Fire Captain Rebecca Marodi, who was heard begging, “Yolanda! Please … I don’t want to die,” according to the arrest warrant from San Diego County
“The message stated, ‘Becky came home and told me she was leaving me, she met someone else, all the messages were lies. We had a big fight and I hurt her… I’m sorry,’” a sheriff’s deputy wrote of the suspect, who is also known as Yolanda Olejniczak.
The 49-year-old fire official was found inside their Ramona home with stab wounds to her abdomen, chest and neck. Her wife is still at large and is suspected of having fled to Mexico.
The warrant stated that the slain captain had “told Yolanda that she was leaving her and ending their marriage” about a week before the Jan. 17 murder.
Door cam footage appears to show her wife chasing her across the patio of their home just after 8 p.m., as a voice believed to be the fire captain’s is heard pleading for her life, the warrant notes.
“Yolanda! Please… I don’t want to die,” the voice says, before Marodi is seen in the frame with what appears to be blood running down her back, according to the arrest warrant.
“You should have thought of that before,” another voice, believed to be Olejniczak’s, replies, as she is seen standing over her wife holding a knife with blood apparently on her arm.
Olejniczak demands her wife go back inside while Marodi repeatedly begs for her to call 911, according to the warrant.
Eventually, the pair go back into the house, the last time Marodi is seen in the footage.
Shortly afterward, “Yolanda is seen gathering pets, random items, and some luggage and loading it into a silver Chevrolet Equinox SUV,” the warrant states, adding that she was seen wearing different clothes than she was at the start of the video.
Her vehicle was spotted crossing into Mexico several hours later, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
“At this time, Olejniczak’s whereabouts are not known. Out of an abundance of caution, the Sheriff’s Office has alerted authorities on both sides of the border about this suspect,” the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
