California Woman Suspected of Killing Her Cal Fire Captain Wife Is Captured in Mexico After 33 Days on the Run
People ^ | 3/23/2025 | Bailey Richards

The California woman suspected of fatally stabbing her wife and fleeing to Mexico has been captured after more than four weeks on the run.

Thirty-three days after she crossed into Mexico on Feb. 17 — the day her Cal Fire captain wife, Rebecca “Becky” Marodi, 49, was found dead in her California home — Yolanda Olejniczak Marodi was located and taken into custody, according to the San Diego Sheriff's Office (SDSO).

Mexican authorities alerted United States officials that Yolanda, 53, had been found on Saturday, March 22, the sheriff’s office said. She was arrested near a hotel on Fresnillo Avenue in Mexicali, NBC 7 in San Diego reported, citing Mexican officials.

Yolanda was later released to U.S. Marshals. She will be booked into custody for murder, the SDSO said, adding that homicide investigators are still working to determine the circumstances and motivation behind the death of Rebecca, a captain with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

Yolanda previously served time in prison — from 2004 to 2013 — for manslaughter in connection with the stabbing death of her then-husband, James J. Olejniczak Jr., per NBC 7.

Yup, the makeup made her look more feminine. Surprising that the femme killed the butch.

Lesbians can be extremely vicious toward a partner. It happens far more than with homosexual men, in my observation.

I’ve always had reservations about “Faggots” in our general society.
They need their own “special place”, where they can work out their perversions.
I’ve dealt with Fags all my life, and I never found one
to be worthy of “Trust”.

I’ve known several homosexual men whom I trusted very much, and one who was the most generous friend I ever had.

I’m sorry that your experience has been different.

“”Yolanda previously served time in prison — from 2004 to 2013 — for manslaughter in connection with the stabbing death of her then-husband, James J. Olejniczak Jr., per NBC 7.””

Yeah, I have a question or two. Did Rebecca know that Yolanda had stabbed and killed her “then-husband”? And if so... how really dumb would he/she/it have to be to marry Yolanda anyway....? Thank kind of stupid got her killed, if she knew.

Geez, she had served time for killing her husband. Now has killed a woman spouse. What a bad track record. Unbelievable

Would you trust them with children. Homosexually is a behavior not an identity. Go watch that behavior sometime.

I guess the ones I’ve known weren’t criminals.

(What were you doing in prison, anyway?)

The gay men I’ve known were dignified people in stable adult relationships, and weren’t into fooling with kids. (And they would be appalled at the exhibitionist culture that has grown up around simply being gay.)

Gay people are not all the same, any more than straight people are. (There’s probably some ‘straight’ guy in your neighborhood with whom you’d never trust your girl child.)

“What were you doing in prison, anyway?”
Charges dropped.
I K.O.ed a cop screaming in my face.
Luckily, I was a minor.
Or the other cops would have killed me.
I was a young Military guy having fun in New Orleans.
