Domestic Violence... After several violent episodes, another co-worker implored Alfonso to leave him.
Quote:
His father, Derek Medina Sr., told reporters his son killed Alfonso only after she brandished a knife. In the younger Medina?s Facebook post, he did not mention a knife, but wrote: ?My wife was punching me and I?m not going to stand anymore with the abuse so I did what I did. Hope u understand me.?

But according to an arrest report, Medina admitted to investigators he got into an argument with Alfonso. The report said he went upstairs, fished his pistol from a closet and pointed it at Alfonso.
Alfonso yelled she was ?leaving him,? according to the report by Detective Jonathan Grossman. Then, Medina ? still brandishing the weapon ? followed her downstairs to the kitchen, where she grabbed a knife.
Medina said he disarmed Alfonso, put the knife in the drawer, then shot her several times after she began punching and kicking him, the report said.
The photo Medina posted on Facebook shows Alfonso, wearing all black and pink socks, on her knees, twisted backward in a bloody heap.
Alfonso?s former boss at a West Miami-Dade Denny?s told the Miami Herald that the husband was extremely jealous and had hit Alfonso in the past.
?She would be bruised up,? said Amada Cooper, who described Medina as a controlling husband who tried to force her to quit her job as a server because he didn?t want her working nights.
After several violent episodes, another co-worker implored Alfonso to leave him. ?He would always come back, begging her ? come back,? said Cathy LaBella. ?She would say he was going to change. She was in love with him.?
