The couple Kristy Manzanares and husband Kenneth Manzanares were celebrating their 18th anniversary with their three daughters on a week-long Princess Cruises voyage from Seattle to Alaska in July 2017.

On July 25, 2017, there was a “music murder trivia” game that was arranged for the evening on the ship. Soon, some passengers heard Kristy’s helpless screams coming from her cabin, but they thought it was part of the game to make it more entertaining.

Later, Kristy Manzanares, 39, was discovered on the floor of her cabin with blood all over the place. Her husband, Kenneth Manzanares, admitted his crime and was arrested on July 26, 2017.
Reports suggest that when authorities asked the dad of three kids what prompted him to do this crime, he said, “She would not stop laughing at me”.

Manzanares revealed that he had a verbal fight with Kristy on the night of the killing. During this hostile argument, she told him that she wanted a divorce in front of their kids. She also asked him to get off the ship and go back to Utah.

At that moment, he told their adult daughter and a minor to leave the cabin. When their daughter tried to re-enter the room, she heard her mom’s screams, and her dad would not let her in. She then went to the balcony of the neighboring room and saw her father standing over Kristy, beating her repeatedly on her head with his closed fist.

Kenneth Manzanare pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and faces a life sentence in prison and a maximum fine of $250,000. (1, 2)

Dominique met John Sweeney at a party in 1981. After a few weeks of dating, the new couple moved into a house together in West Hollywood. The relationship quickly fell apart because of Sweeney’s possessiveness and jealousy.

The couple fought frequently, and Sweeney started physically abusing her. During an argument on September 26th, 1982 Sweeney tried to kill her. Dominique later ended the relationship. On October 30th, a few weeks after the breakup, Sweeney showed up at her house, and after having a violent argument, he attempted to kill Dominique by strangling her. He admitted his crime of attempted murder and suicide.

Dominique was transferred to a nearby hospital where she was put on life support because her heart had stopped. Over the following days, doctors performed brain scans which showed no brain activity due to oxygen deprivation. She never regained consciousness, and on November 4th, her life support was removed.

Initially, Sweeney was charged with first-degree murder, but later during the proceeding, his charges were changed, and ultimately he was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter. Sweeney served only three and a half years in prison for the murder of Dominique Dunne. (source)
