41-year-old man arrested for killing pregnant mistress after she reportedly failed to abort their baby
Jose Soto-Escalera was arrested for the murder this week and has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. His wife had been in the dark about his alleged affair.
A married Florida father has been arrested for the murder of his mistress, with whom he allegedly had a sexual relationship and had impregnated. 41-year-old Jose Soto-Escalera reportedly killed 23-year-old Tania Wise, who was eight-months pregnant at the time of her death and whose body was found in a ditch along a desolate road in northwestern St. Lucie County.
According to People, Wise had suffered blunt force trauma to the back of her head, as well as trauma to her throat. Her death meant that her unborn baby, whom she had named Josiah Thomas, could not be saved either. The exact cause of her death has not been released by the authorities.
