自宅で殺害された隊長
2件の殺人、1つの経歴
これは、キャリアのすべてを地域社会への奉仕にささげた、尊敬される献身的な消防隊長に対する残忍な殺人でした。
分かっていること
不明な点
- 公開の法廷では、2年間の結婚生活がなぜその夜に致命的なものとなったのかを説明する動機は述べられていない。
- 2013年の仮釈放後にどのような監督、カウンセリング、リスク評価が行われたかを示す公的記録はない。
今後の展開
- マロディ被告がそれまで生存していた場合、数十年後に仮釈放審理委員会が36年を十分とみなすかどうか。
- 仮釈放された配偶者殺害犯が介入を受けることなく親密な関係に戻った経緯について、カリフォルニア州が検証するかどうか。

放送時の内容
- A Cal Fire captain was stabbed 23 times — her wife now gets 36 years to life.
- Thirty years of firefighting service ended on a Ramona driveway in February 2025. The woman responsible had already served prison time for killing another spouse.
- The question this case leaves: how a woman paroled in 2013 for stabbing her husband to death got a second chance she used the same way.
- Rebecca “Becky” Marodi, 49, was a Cal Fire captain at the French Valley station in Riverside County. On the night of February 17th, 2025, at the couple’s home on Rancho Villa Road, she was stabbed 23 times in the neck, chest, and abdomen. Her mother, Lorena, who lived on the same property, found her and called 911. Becky died at the scene.
- The home’s security camera recorded the attack. Around eight p.m., it captured Becky being chased across the patio, screaming that she didn’t want to die. The woman who later faced 36 years to life answered, “You should have thought of that before,” and was described as holding a knife with blood on her arms. The recording also shows the killer loading pets and luggage into a Chevy Equinox afterward.
- That same night she crossed into Mexico — the Department of Homeland Security logged the crossing shortly after 9:15 p.m. She was arrested in Mexicali more than five weeks later, on March 22nd, 2025, and turned over to U.S. Marshals.
- The record runs in two chapters. In October 2000, she stabbed her estranged husband to death. She pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in 2003 and was paroled in 2013 — roughly ten years served. That prior conviction was treated as a strike in this case, and it’s why the plea locked in a life term. In August of this year, a month before trial was set to begin, she pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, admitted using a knife, and waived her right to appeal the term. Thirty-four days later, the judge imposed the sentence.
- The method was the same — a knife, in a domestic setting, on a spouse. Two spouses, twenty-five years apart, and the second time the woman had already been through the system once.
- Now the number itself. In California, “36 years to life” is an indeterminate life sentence — the 36 years is the minimum before she can even be considered for parole. It is not automatic release. The Board of Parole Hearings would decide later whether she is suitable, and she would be about 90 years old by then. She could die in prison without ever being released.
- In court, the victim’s mother spoke. Lorena Marodi said the grief of losing her only child “ripples into every part of her life,” called it the privilege of a lifetime to have been Becky’s parent, and asked that the woman who killed her daughter be kept behind bars for the rest of her life.
- The district attorney added that no one is immune to domestic violence. Judge Selena Epley called Becky a hero in her community.
- So what does accountability mean here? The sentence is real — at least 36 years. But the question the family lives with is why the system that convicted her once, imprisoned her, and paroled her in 2013 could not stop a second killing. What the record now shows is 23 stab wounds, a guilty plea, and a term that could be life. What it does not show is how a woman who had already killed one spouse found her way back into a marriage — and into a position to do it again.
