Rosie Sanchez, also known as Rosa Sanchez, and Anderson Nunez are confirmed dead by New York police.
According to authorities, on Sunday, a 15-year-old girl called 911, and she confessed to shooting and stabbing her mother and her lover. The murders took place on December 28.
When police arrived at the apartment located in Sheepshead Bay, they found the bodies of Anderson Nunez and Rosie Sanchez. According to the police report, they discovered Nunez’s body covered in blood on the kitchen floor. Sanchez was in the bedroom, also covered in blood. Additionally, law enforcement found 5 .380 caliber shells and two knives in the apartment.
The young girl, who was accompanied by her father, told police that Mr. Anderson Nunez, 40, was sexually abusing her, and her mother ignored her countless pleas for help. She also claimed that her mother had physically abused her.
The teenager was arrested and charged with two counts of murder and illegal weapons possession. During her interrogation, the teen said on December 28, she had a fight with her mother, who would not believe that her boyfriend was raping her.
The heated exchange led to her grabbing a gun out of a drawer in her mother’s bedroom and then firing at least two bullets into her mom. After killing Sanchez, she shot Nunez and later stabbed him several times in the back.
The girl told police that a second teenager was in the hall and rushed into the apartment when he heard the struggle with Nunez. Police are searching for the second teen, but it is unclear if he played a role in the murders.
The girl stated that she fled the crime scene in a car to her father’s home and left the bodies to rot for six days in the Sheepshead Bay Houses apartment. The teenager was seen partying at Times Square on New Year’s Eve. The girl told her father and her cousin what had happened on Monday, and they forced her to turn herself in.
