Sandra Venta Pleads Not Guilty in Husband’s Death | San Diego News

A woman named Sandra Venta, 33, has pleaded not guilty to murder after her common-law husband, Daniel Cornejo, 33, was found dead in their apartment on 39th Street following a violent argument. Neighbors heard the commotion, and witnesses saw Venta screaming for help while standing over her deceased partner. She suffered minor injuries and visible bruising, prompting authorities to keep her face obscured in court. Prosecutors plan to investigate the couple’s history, including any prior incidents, as Venta may claim self-defense. Their six-year-old child, who was at school during the incident, is now staying with relatives — a relief prosecutors note, as the child didn’t witness the alleged stabbing. Venta remains jailed without bail and returns to court on September 1st. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
