HOUSTON - An alleged domestic dispute between a married couple ends with the wife stabbed to death inside their northeast Houston home as the couple's three children watched.
Officers arrived after 11 p.m. Thursday to the home on Orleans Street near Catherwood Place in response to a reported disturbance and found the woman had been stabbed and died inside the house.
Homicide investigators say the victim's husband, identified as 40-year-old Jesus Gonzalez, had been drinking before the couple began to fight. As the fight escalated, investigators say Jesus Gonzalez stabbed Alicia Saldana Gonzalez, 36.
The children, who investigators say witnessed the stabbing, were between the ages of 11 and 16 years old.
Jesus Gonzalez has been charged with murder.
Homicide investigators say the couple had a long history of fighting.
