California Teen Found Dead, Boyfriend Sought by Police

Eighteen-year-old Marissa DiNapoli was found dead in Morgan Hill, California, days after being reported missing. She was last seen with her 21-year-old boyfriend, Martin Mendoza, who is now a person of interest and uncooperative with police investigations. DiNapoli’s body was discovered under a bridge near Anderson Lake County Park, a location Mendoza used to visit with her, but the condition of the body initially made identification difficult. Surveillance footage captured the pair leaving a residence together shortly before her disappearance, with audio suggesting tension between them. Friends reported that Mendoza had threatened DiNapoli, describing him as obsessed and dangerous. Authorities urge anyone with information to come forward as they continue to seek Mendoza and other leads in the case.
