The Murder of Selena Quintanilla Perez Part 1
Apr 05, 2024 Season 1 Episode 128

Today on Crime Talk with Stef, we discuss a case that I’ve been putting off because of how much the victim means to me, and to everyone who grew up loving her and her music, the one and only, Selena Quintanilla Perez. Selena was a light that this world needed, a down to earth star, who ALWAYS put her fans first and made each person that she met feel special. You don’t see much of that today. One could say that Selena’s trusting and loving soul played a part in her murder, but I don’t think being a good and trusting person is a reason to be an easy target for murder. This is part one of The Murder of Selena Quintanilla Perez.
