When Luz Hernandez Goes Missing?
On February 6, 2023, Beloved Community Charter School authorities reported a 33-year-old kindergarten teacher missing. The New York Post reports that a teacher named Luz Hernandez has been missing since Saturday, February 4. The instructor, a mother of three, had worked at the school since 2017. Following receipt of the information, officials proceeded to Luz Hernandez’s Van Horne Street residence to conduct a welfare check. However, they made a horrible find when they discovered her dead in “what appeared to be a shallow grave.” According to Suarez, the corpse was found just before 5 p.m. on Tuesday, and Luz was declared dead at the scene. Authorities are investigating her death as suspicious. The blood spatters on the 33-year-old teacher’s apartment door were discovered by police.
What do the Officials Say?
If Hernandez’s death is determined to be a homicide, it will be the fifth in Hudson County since the start of the year.
