Feds: Man charged in Minnesota Stabbing Was in US Illegally

by Associated Press

   SHAKOPEE, MINN. --

   Federal officials say a man accused of fatally stabbing his
   ex-girlfriend in Minnesota before slashing his own throat entered the
   U.S. illegally after being deported in 2012.

   Thirty-five-year-old Fraider Diaz-Carbajal was charged Monday with
   second-degree murder in the Aug. 12 death of 27-year-old Enedelia Perez
   Garcia in his apartment in the Minneapolis suburb of Shakopee.
   Authorities say she suffered multiple stab wounds all over her body.
   Diaz-Carbajal was initially hospitalized, then booked into jail Monday.
   Bail is set at $1.5 million.
   Authorities haven't disclosed a motive.
   Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesman Shawn Neudauer tells the
   Star Tribune Diaz-Carbajal was deported to Mexico in 2012 because of
   three drunken-driving convictions and one for domestic assault. He says
   Diaz-Carbajal later re-entered the country illegally.
   Court records don't list an attorney for him.
