Just days before Christmas, Abiella Fuentes is trying desperately to bring some Christmas joy to her two beautiful children, 3-year-old Sophia and 5-year-old Ayvin. The three of them are making their own Christmas decorations by hand, not because they’re crafty, but because they can’t afford to buy decorations or gifts this year.For the last year, she’s tried to piece the shattered fragments of her once, happy life back together.
You see, her husband Gerardo was murdered along with his best friend. Both of their bodies were burned beyond recognition. “It was believed he was shot multiple times, but it was never confirmed. He was placed in the backseat of BJ’s car. BJ was placed in the trunk,” Fuentes tells us. “They set it on fire.”Fuentes went from being a devoted wife, mother, and corrections officer at the state prison, to suddenly becoming an unemployed, single mom. She said she could no longer work with convicted killers behind bars and is now struggling to provide for her two children.
