Police have arrested two people on charges of murder and abuse of a corpse after the discovery of a girl’s body encased in concrete and a boy's remains in a suitcase in Colorado

Two people have been arrested on charges of murder and abuse of a corpse after the discovery of a girl's body encased in concrete and a boy's remains in a suitcase in Colorado, according to police and public jail records.

The City of Pueblo Police Department announced the arrest of Corena Rose Minjarez, 36, on Friday, and county jail records show the second suspect, Jesus Dominguez, 35, also was in custody as of Sunday.

Police found the girl's remains in a metal container filled with concrete in a storage unit last month, according to authorities. The unit was being cleared out after the rent wasn't paid. As part of the investigation, police began searching for two children last seen in the summer of 2018, Jesus Dominguez Jr. and Yesenia Dominguez.

Incredibly lucky they decided to skip the rent on the storage unit. I used to work at one and some units, if paid up, will sit for decades. Glad this could be resolved before too much time had passed

Shades of Junko Furuta's murder, though I suppose concrete imprisonment isn't especially novel.

For anyone else curious, the police aren't identifying the relationship between the victims and suspects at this time and the article doesn't seem to mention the children's ages, though the suspects ages and the fact the victims weren't reported missing implies caregivers/parents in my opinion, but a total guess.
