A tragic incident unfolded in Los Angeles as a mother allegedly drowned her 7-year-old daughter in a bathtub, leaving the community in shock. The mother, Graciela Castellanos, 37, was arrested and charged with murder after her daughter was found unconscious in their apartment in Van Nuys. The little girl’s name has not been released to the public.

According to Castellanos’ fiancé, who chose to remain anonymous, the mother had fallen into a deep depression due to her illegal status in the US. He believes that this despair led her to commit the unthinkable act of taking her daughter’s life. Castellanos, who reportedly struggled with mental and emotional health issues, had never shown any violent tendencies before this incident.

Described as an almost perfect mom by her fiancé, Castellanos was known for her loving and gentle nature towards her daughter. The couple was set to be married in two months, with plans for the fiancé to adopt the young girl. However, the tragic turn of events has left the family shattered and the community reeling from the loss.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office has refrained from providing any information regarding Castellanos and her daughter’s immigration status. The heartbreaking scene of Castellanos being restrained and wheeled out of the apartment after the incident was captured on camera, showcasing the devastating aftermath of the tragedy.

DA Nathan Hochman expressed his condolences to the family and loved ones of the young girl, stating that the alleged facts of the case are profoundly tragic and deeply unsettling. Castellanos now faces a maximum sentence of 25 years to life in prison and is being held on $2 million bail. Her preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 17, where more details of the case are expected to emerge.
