Woman pleads no contest to helping man dump body in Omaha

OMAHA, Neb. – A woman has pleaded no contest to helping her boyfriend dump his mother’s body in southeast Omaha in 2015.

The Omaha World-Herald reports (http://bit.ly/2baz5Bm ) Gabriela Guevara pleaded no contest Monday to being an accessory. She will be sentenced in October.

Her boyfriend, Roberto Martinez-Marinero, pleaded guilty earlier this year to two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of his mother, 45-year-old Jesus Ismenia Marinero, and his 4-year-old half brother, Josue Ramirez-Marinero. He was sentenced to life in prison.

After killing his mother, Martinez-Marinero took her two youngest children in an attempt to eliminate witnesses. He dumped his then-11-month-old half brother in a La Vista dumpster. The child was found later, bruised but otherwise uninjured.

He threw the 4-year-old boy off a bridge to his death.
