A former Mexican beauty queen was found shot dead in her luxury apartment — with her mother-in-law eyed as the prime suspect, according to reports.
Carolina Flores Gomez, 27, was found with a gunshot wound to the head last Thursday in her apartment in one of Mexico City’s wealthiest neighborhoods, Mexican outlet Reporte Indigo reported.

Authorities believe Gomez, the Miss Teen Universe for northern Mexico’s Baja California state in 2017, was killed a day before they were alerted, raising suspicion as to why her husband, Alejandro Gomez, took so long to raise the alarm.
They believe he was home at the time of the murder — along with his mom, Erika Maria, who is the prime suspect, according to the reports.
Building staff did not report hearing gunshots or unusual activity at the high-end residential complex in Polanco, a district known for its wealth and security. Forensic teams have since combed the apartment for evidence.
Baja California governor Marina del Pilar Avila is among those calling for an urgent investigation.

“No crime against a woman should go unpunished. Our thoughts are with her family during this devastating time,” Avila told reporters.
Campaigners are demanding the death be treated as femicide, with the case sparking fresh outrage over violence against women in Mexico.
Approximately 10 women a day are murdered in Mexico, with only 1% resulting in sentencing, according to official statistics.
