Justice for Liz Barraza
Bridegan’s widow, Kirsten, was in the courtroom when prosecutors made the announcement about seeking the death penalty if Fernandez is convicted. She released a statement on social media after that hearing:
“The announcement today is another significant step toward justice. The knowledge that the State (is) pursuing the death penalty for Mario Fernandez Saldana is welcome news because it signifies determination and the relentless pursuit of justice for Jared, our family, and the community. We aren’t backing down to those involved in the heinous, cold-blooded murder of my husband in front of our daughter.
I take comfort knowing (Jared’s children from his previous marriage) are not living with Mario and I hope all evil surrounding them and our family will be removed in due time.
Jared is loved and missed more than words can express and we deeply feel his loss. While we know he is gone, we take comfort in knowing the prosecution team and law enforcement remain unrelenting in their efforts and are committed to holding everyone involved in Jared’s murder accountable. They continue to have our support and gratitude.”
