Marrero was reported missing on May 21, and she was last seen around May 8 or 9. Her family said they have not received updates or answers from law enforcement in about a month.

The Medical Examiner's Office has not released a cause of death, so her family does not know how or when she died.

Chris Bellings, the former Homicide Chief at the Erie County District Attorney's Office, said those results could take a lot longer.

"The medical examiners office is first of all very busy. Second of all, [it's] usually chronically understaffed. They take their time to do the job correctly," Bellings said.

I know Jalia and Luis' family are upset with a lack of answers and movement at this point. I firmly believe once the ME has completed the investigation, there will be an arrest. My thoughts are with them while they wait.

Agreed, but they're not just upset with the lack of answers and movement, they're terrified that Jalia's "boyfriend" (abuser) will Shoot them dead next. How terrifying.
