Dramatic Arrests Unveiled: Uncle and Nephew Duo Nabbed in West Palm Beach Murder Case

The accused individuals are Reynaldo Paredes, 53, residing in Palm Beach County, and his nephew Yoel Lazano Paredes, 24, from Freeport, Illinois. The arrests were made by West Palm Beach police and the U.S. Marshals Service on a Tuesday morning. Reynaldo was apprehended in West Palm Beach, while his nephew Yoel was taken into custody in Freeport.

The timeline of events indicates that the fatal stabbing occurred after all three – the victim and the accused pair – were observed leaving a Mexican sports bar located on Georgia Avenue after midnight on April 3. The distressing find of Menendez’s lifeless body in the dumpster was reported to 911 by a Spanish-speaking caller around 8:49 a.m. at the Southridge Senior Community.

The investigation, led by the agency’s Homicide Unit, eventually pointed to Reynaldo and Yoel as the prime suspects. Notably, Yoel had relocated to Illinois following the stabbing. Surveillance footage played a crucial role in tracking their movements. Video evidence captured Yoel’s 2003 white four-door Mercury near the dumpster.
