What drove a teenager to commit such a brutal act?
It's always so horrifying when a child murders, especially when they take the lives of family members who loved them. Sometimes it can be for mental health reasons that the parents either didn't know about or didn't realize were as serious as they were. Sometimes they lash out at abusers or again, family members who didn't take them seriously when they found out that they were being abused, possibly by a family member. Sometimes there doesn't seem to be a reason at all. Either way, it's always just so unfathomable and so jarring when any child commits a crime as brutal as murder. And in this case, we genuinely do not have the answers for why this happened. Everyone who knew the family are just shocked and devastated at what happened here. I will warn you that this case is very difficult to listen to. They have released certain images of the crime scene as well as images of the attack actually taking place.
I'm not going to show you any images that I think are extremely graphic, unnecessarily graphic, but even the images I do show, just knowing what occurred before, during, and after these images are taken, just makes them so much more disturbing to look at. So that is what I will say about that. Without any further delay, let's get into today's case. This is the story of Irina Garcia and her son, Derek Rosa. As of right now, there's not a lot known about 38-year-old Irina Garcia or her 13-year-old son, Derek Rosa. What we do know is that Derek was born to Irina and his father, Jose Rosa. However, just two weeks before her death, Irena gave birth to a baby girl who is fathered by Derek's stepfather and the family lived together in an apartment in Hialeah, Florida. As far as I have been able to find, we don't know the name of the baby girl. I also haven't seen the stepfather's name listed anywhere.
We do hear it in the 911 call, but I can't really make the name out, and I do want to respect his privacy anyways, given the awful, immeasurable tragedy that he's just gone through. By all accounts, it appeared that Irena, her husband, and Derek were all excited for the arrival of their newest addition into the family. Irina and the family can be seen smiling in her maternity photos, cradling her stomach, excited for the baby's arrival. According to one friend, Irina could be described as a beautiful person on the inside and out. She was so warm and kind, and by all accounts, she was a good mother. 13-year-old Derek was in the eighth grade at the iMatter Academy, which is a tuition-free charter school, and there he was known as an honor student. Meanwhile, Derek's stepfather worked as a truck driver, so it appears that he had a schedule that kept him away from the home for extended periods of time.
However, by October 12, 2023, at around 11.30 p.m., 911 received a very disturbing call from the residence where Irina, her husband Derek, and their new baby girl lived. In that call, we can hear Derek requesting police to come to his house because he had just stabbed his mom. In the first five-ish minutes of the call, he's explaining that he doesn't know his address, so he looks around for mail so he can tell them their address. He said that it was just him, his mom, and the baby sister in the home because his stepfather was out at work driving his truck far away that day. He explained that there was a gun in the home in the other room, but he did also have a knife nearby. It's kind of interesting because as he's going through this and looking through the mail, he said that he couldn't actually read the mail, like he couldn't read the address that was listed on there. So the dispatcher just told him to read off the numbers and letters if he could.
That was a little bit confusing to me. He obviously could just be in a state of shock and just like isn't processing anything right now. That's totally possible. But I just thought that it was interesting that he said that he couldn't read off the mail to her. He then mentions that he has other family members who can take care of his sister.
