THE CHRON: When Houston police found the fatally stabbed body of Ceceilia Sanders early Monday morning, her younger daughter was with her.
Her other daughter, a 3-year-old, was found in a bedroom closet in the family’s northwest Houston apartment.
Neither daughter was seriously injured in the deadly stabbing and authorities would hours later charge Sanders’ boyfriend in her death.
Ronald Deshaun Green is accused of killing the 27-year-old woman sometime Sunday, stabbing her with a knife, according to court records. Green, also 27, is also charged with abandoning a child. His is in jail on $100,000 bail.
Sanders was discovered about 12:10 a.m. Monday inside the apartment at Yale Village, 5637 Yale near Tidwell, Houston police said.
She had been stabbed more than once and was found by her mother in an upstairs bedroom. The 8-month-old was not hurt, but the older girl had a bump on her head, police said.
Relatives said the woman’s mother had not heard from her during the day Sunday and came to the apartment to check on her and found her dead.
HPD Sgt. Warren Meeler said Green was the last person seen with the woman.
Neighbors reportedly saw the couple enter the apartment together about noon Sunday. Meeler said no one saw the woman leave the apartment after that. But, he added, neighbors told investigators they later saw Green alone outside pacing back and forth in front of the unit and then he went back inside.
Suspect found at store
Green was found about 7:15 a.m. after one of his relatives told police he might be at a convenience store on Gulf Bank near Alabonson just outside Houston in northwest Harris County, Meeler said.
Meeler said Green willingly accompanied authorities to be questioned at HPD headquarters in downtown Houston.
