Sadly, not every marriage is built to last. Most people opt for divorce but James Guevara did something far more sinister to his wife, Velia Guevara, when he wanted the relationship to end. His mistress, Minnie Salinas, was happy to help.
Velia Acosta Guevara was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1960. She was one of three girls and grew up in a tight-knit Catholic family. Velia was adored by those who knew her.
“She was just lovely. That’s the only way to describe the person that I remember,” friend Melisa Skinner told Oxygen’s “Snapped,” airing
Sundays at Oxygen.
