MEXICALI, Baja California (KESQ) - Yolanda Marodi, the wife of CalFire Captain Rebecca Marodi and suspect in her murder, was arrested in Mexico over the weekend.
The State Citizen Security Force in Baja California announced Marodi's arrest Saturday. Officials say the arrest comes as a result of "information exchanges" between Mexico and U.S. law enforcement.
"CAL FIRE/Riverside County Fire Department is aware that Yolanda Marodi was apprehended. We thank our law enforcement partners in San Diego and Mexico for their hard work. Becky was a beloved member of our community and Department, and we miss her greatly,'' the department said in a statement Sunday.
Mexican authorities say Marodi was arrested near a hotel in the Ferrocarril neighborhood of Mexicali.
She was admitted for medical treatment prior to being booked into jail, the sheriff's office said in a statement Monday.
"Las Colinas Detention and Reentry Facility is currently completing the booking process for Yolanda,'' Lt. Patrick Fox told City News Service. "Once booked, the San Diego County District Attorney's office will work on scheduling an arraignment date for Yolanda."
The arrest comes over a month after Rebecca "Becky" Marodi was stabbed to death in her San Diego County home.
Via court records, News Channel 3 discovered Yolanda pled guilty to murdering her estranged husband over 20 years ago.
Mardoni served more than 30 years with Cal Fire, mainly in Riverside County with assignments in Indian Wells and Rancho Mirage. Her service began in 1993 as a volunteer firefighter in Moreno Valley in Riverside County. She went on to serve as a seasonal firefighter in Riverside and San Bernardino counties before being promoted to fire apparatus engineer in 2007 and achieving the rank of captain in 2022 at the Cal Fire/Riverside County Fire Department.
