One evening in April 2005, Raven Abaroa said he was out playing soccer when he returned to his family’s North Carolina home to discover a horrifying scene.
He told police he found his wife, 25-year-old Janet Abaroa, stabbed to death in an upstairs office. Nothing else in the house was disturbed, according to authorities, and the couple’s 6-month-old son, Kaiden, was left unharmed in another room.
“She’s been shot or something. There’s blood everywhere,” Raven Abaroa told a 911 dispatcher at the time.
Who killed Janet Abaroa was a mystery that captivated the Durham, North Carolina, suburbs, and the case remained unsolved for years.

GOOD MORNING AMERICA’S HOMEPAGE:
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
Vaness wanted to be married more than she cared about him being possibly guilty. The fact she had a young daughter is even more chilling. Here you have a women who was warned, who did her research. Even her own father was a cop yet she ignored all the red flags
HOW the HELL did her COP FATHER not take a road trip and INVESTIGATE??? Way before the marriage?? It is a challenge for him, daddy lost that challenge.
Statistically cops/correctional officers have a high rate of domestic abuse/rape/assault.
They demand respect and servitude. So daughter was raised to expect that, and probably more comfortable with it, unfortunately.
That reenactment tho 🤧
HOW on earth could it be the police that was planting something, when he tells SO many different stories…
2:47 You got played!
He picks below average looking women and plays on that.
She probably thought “ If it doesn’t work out with Raven, I could always date OJ “
I finally fell for the nice guy 😂
Why in the world did you marry him???????? Salesman of the year or I idiot of the year for sure!
She couldn’t ask “who do you think did this?â€ÂÂ. And actually, robbers very rarely kill, much less with a knife†in any case they come in with a gun.
there is no way i would date a man of his killing the wife.
Vanessa epitomizes GULLIBLE women who predators make a beeline for. She dismisses all the red flags about him glaring at her after her 'investigations'.
Dude! Her dad's a cop! He didn't cry bullshit & tell her fuckin' run!
Anyone who doesn’t answer a question directly..and says a side answer or answers with a question…Is lying.
So scary how can you murder your spouse… that’s just insane to me. Im gonna be single forever
Typical Mormon
this ugly brunette he married is a majorly narcissistic drama queen. Bad news to the hilt.
It’s called a ‘love bomb’, he’s a narcissist.
Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. But he cute and me want.
Where is part two??
Mormons are straight weirdos. Talk about gullible
You guy need to stop.They we're a beautiful couple. Your evil.
Woman. Stop globing on to charming men and committing to marriage all in a few months. It is a huge red flag when things move this quick and especially if you are a suspect in you ex wife’s murder where you bag 500K🙄
Vanessa is full of it. Some sort of act on her part.
Mormons are even richer than Catholics.
Well, okay, as long as you're Mormon.
He was a creep yes but if you notice he wasn't even crying 🤦ðŸÂ¾ he had crocodile tears that whole time he did it
That one sister does not look like the others lol
Just cause you confront him doesn't mean he's gonna fess up! DUH!
Do Mormons divorce?
She’s an idiot
Ugggh..
Where is part 2 !??
Where do I find these clueless bitches ?
