27 years ago, in room 158 of the Days Inn motel, Yolanda Saldivar fired a.38mm caliber revolver at Selena Quintanilla, leaving her seriously injured. After the attack, Saldivar spent nearly 10 hours inside a van threatening to take her own life until she was finally stopped by the authorities.
Although on several occasions she pleaded not guilty to the heinous crime, in October 1995 Yolanda Saldivar was sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of first-degree murder against Selena Quintanilla. More than two decades have passed since Saldivar is held in Mountain View Unit, a maximum security prison for women in Gatesville, Texas.
However, the judge who sentenced her granted her the benefit of being able to apply for parole after serving 30 years of her sentence, which will be served in 2025. Meanwhile, Yolanda Saldivar spends her days in a cell measuring approximately 3.5 x 2 meters. His days begin with a moment of recreation in the morning, then he works as a janitor and returns to his confinement.

In an interview for Univision, Texas Department of Criminal Justice spokesman Jeremy Desel said that “There have been no real or significant changes in Saldivar's status in years and years.” “She's been on the same stage for a long, long time,” he said.
On that occasion, the spokesman for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice did not want to give any further statements about the state of Yolanda Saldivar, so he only focused on specifying that “A janitor works doing what a janitor does.”
It is also known that Yolanda Saldivar remains away from other inmates, as well as that she has the right to purchase a transistor radio from the prison police station and to receive a visit of one hour a week from her family or friends.
He has tried to appeal twice, the first time was in 2009 and he lost it because he filed it in the wrong county. In 2014 she tried again, appealing for the deterioration of her health, which she could not prove and was rejected.

Yolanda Saldivar is currently 61 years old and, although due to her advanced age and “good behavior” she could get her parole in 2025, death threats have been present in her life since the day she ended the life of Selena Quintanilla.
Through letters, fans of Selena Quintanilla or the inmates of Mountain View Unit themselves have expressed their contempt for her and threatened to harm her at the earliest opportunity they have.
For his part, the father of the late Tex-Mex queen, Abraham Quintanilla, assured that his family does not care if Saldivar is given probation in 2025, but he considers that he is in a safe place, because despite the years she knows that there are people who want to kill her.

27 years ago, the voice of one of the most important personalities in Latin music died out; Selena Quintanilla was murdered on the morning of March 31, 1995 by Yolanda Saldivar, who was not only president and founder of the fan club of the queen of Tex-Mex, but also her personal assistant and manager of her brand Selena Etc .
The bullet from Saldivar's gun hit Selena's lower right shoulder, causing one of the singer's arteries to rupture, resulting in her death due to blood loss and cardiorespiratory arrest.
Selena Quintanilla was one of the promising young women of the time because at the age of 23 she had already positioned herself not only as one of the most important Latin figures important, in addition to having developed as an American model, actress and fashion designer.
