Two years ago, Cavalcante stabbed his ex-girlfriend in front of her two children in Pennsylvania. He then fled the state and was arrested in Virginia. At the time, Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed to Breitbart News that Cavalcante entered the U.S. illegally.
“This is a heartbreaking tragedy. Two children are left without a mother. The pain these children and all of Deborah’s loved ones are enduring as a result of this depravity is horrific,” Chester County District Attorney Deb Ryan said after the murder. “We will ensure that the defendant is brought to justice for this cold-blooded, premeditated, and despicable act.”
