<p>A Utah woman who called emergency services to report that her husband was unconcious in their home possibly because he has a history of alcohol abuse is now facing charges of first-degree murder in his death.<br />
Veronica Vizcarra of Kearns, Utah,arrested on suspicion of killing her husband after the medical examiner told police that the man died from blunt force trauma. Vizcarra told investigators that her husband’s injuries were the result of a fight he had at work two weeks earlier, the arrest affidavit states.<br />
Vizcarra, 30, of Kearns, Utah, was arrested Monday on suspicion of murdering her husband, Carlos Vizcarra-Corona, 33.<br />
Police and EMTs initially responded to a call about an unconscious male at the couple&#8217;s home on March 11.<br />
Upon arrival, first responders found Vizcarra-Corona in the home, dead.<br />
Veronica then told investigators that husband had a serious problem with alcohol and consumed too much Tylenol, according to court documents.<br />
Investigators noted that Carlos had been hospitalized for alcohol abuse about four months prior to his death.<br />
After conducting an autopsy, however, the Medical Examiner who had ruled the death a homicide told police on March 12 that while Carlos did have serious medical issues stemming from alcohol use, his actual cause of death was blunt force trauma and a ruptured spleen.<br />
Vizcarra-Corona&#8217;s injury the medical examiner said was in a stage of healing, but that it was unable to heal due to the extensive damage.<br />
Questioned about the healing bruises found on her husband&#8217;s chest, back and face the day he died, the suspect allegedly told police that the bruises were the result of his getting into a fight at work about two weeks before he died, according to the court documents.<br />
She was however contradicted by Carlos&#8217; sister, who told police that her brother had not been a fight at work.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">As the investigation continued, detectives said they spoke with witnesses who claimed that in the two weeks leading up to his death, Carlos had told them that Veronica had beaten him with a staple or nail gun on February 27.<br />
Photos witnesses gave police showed Carlos&#8217; injuries were consistent with those found on his body when he died.<br />
Two of Carlos&#8217; coworkers also told police that he did not get into a fight at work, as Veronica had claimed.<br />
While searching the couple&#8217;s home, police found and seized specific items that were related to the alleged assault.<br />
Veronica was arrested and booked into jail March 16, where she is being held without bail on suspicion of first-degree murder.<br />
This was not Veronica&#8217;s run-in with the law. In January, <a href="https://www.deseret.com/utah/2020/3/17/21183396/police-arrest-wife-after-kearns-mans-death-ruled-homicide">she was charged with criminal mischief,</a> child abuse and two counts of domestic violence in the presence of children, according to court records.<br />
Carlos at the time told police that Veronica had been &#8216;drinking alcohol and threw glass cups at him and his 11-year-old daughter,&#8217; the police affidavit said.<br />
In October 2019, Veronica pled guilty to an assault charge for beating up a woman in 2018.<br />
Court documents show that after entering her plea, she intimidated the victim outside the Salt Lake City, Utah, courtroom. The intimidation led to Vizcarra being charged with the third-degree felony of retaliation against a witness in November 2019. That case is pending and she is scheduled for a court hearing on that case on April 25.</p>
