After his child’s mother posted his whereabouts on Facebook and criticised his opponents for not pursuing him, a Chicago man was shot and killed.

Sunday afternoon, March 17, saw the murder of 25-year-old Bernardo Romero.

In the Irving Park area, two males approached Bernardo Romero as he sat on a front porch. This prompted the Chicago Police Department to send officers to the 4200 block of North Kimball Avenue. The two guys reportedly approached Romero on foot at 1:23 p.m. and then produced their firearms, according to the police.

Officials reported that the young man from Chicago had five gunshot wounds to his chest. The gunmen then left the area on foot and departed in a white SUV.

Police said the young Chicago man was shot five times in the chest. The shooters then fled from the scene on foot before driving away in a white SUV.

 Following the shooting, the victim was rushed to Illinois Masonic Hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

After his death, attention was drawn to a post by his baby mama, who goes by both Marleny Janet and Marleny Romero on Facebook.

She wrote on Facebook: “My bd (baby daddy) got the weakest opps (enemies). He just keep coming home alive and untouched. Ain’t he snitch on half of y’all? Ain’t he ‘rob’ half of y’all? Anyways, he is not located in 4250 N Kimball. I repeat he is not.”

Social media users have called the attention of the police to the post while accusing Marleny of sharing her baby daddy’s location on Facebook, ultimately resulting in his death.

Further investigation shows that the woman, who also goes by Marleny Janet online, was arrested on Sunday, August 27, 2023, for a domestic altercation.

According to Chicago Police Department records a 26-year-old woman named Marlene Janet Benitez was arrested on August 27 for Domestic Battery/Bodily Harm. She was then released on August 28. 

Social media users have since alleged that Marleny and Bernardo have been experiencing ongoing domestic violence; and that she even allegedly stabbed her child’s father, leading to the arrest previously mentioned. 

Marleny has since deactivated her Facebook page, but before this, she first began deleting photos of her child’s father.
