A mother in the Dominican Republic died Sunday after she was allegedly sexually abused by her son in the municipality of Villa Hermosa.
Lucila Rodriguez, 89, was found dead in her home after her granddaughter walked into a room and caught her dad Hipolito Paulino Rodriguez attacking her grandmother, according to various reports.
Lucila’s granddaughter alerted police officers who arrived on the scene and arrested him.
It wasn’t the only time that Paulino Rodriguez had abused his mother, according to family members that spoke to Noticias Sin.
Rodriguez would have turned 90-years-old in October.
The investigating magistrate, Juana Andrea Familia, told the Daily Mail that the woman’s corpse was sent to the coroner’s office where an autopsy will be performed to determine the cause of death.
