Selena's Murderer, Yolanda Saldivar, Denied Parole
Briefly

Yolanda Saldívar, convicted of murdering Tejano star Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, has been denied parole nearly 30 years after the singer's tragic death. The parole board determined that Saldívar poses a continued threat to public safety based on her past actions during the murder. Selena's family expressed their gratitude for the decision, highlighting the ongoing celebration of Selena's legacy rather than the tragic circumstances of her death. Saldívar, who was a close friend and manager, will not be eligible for parole again until 2030.
Selena's family and widower, Chris Pérez, expressed gratitude over Saldívar's parole denial, reinforcing that justice remains for the life taken far too soon.
The state's parole board found that Saldívar still poses a threat to public safety and exhibits a conscious disregard for the lives and safety of others.
