Authorities in Charlotte, North Carolina, are investigating a tragic incident involving the death of 24-year-old Evelin Carolina Enamorado-Cisnado. Her body was discovered by police after they responded to a welfare check at a residential property following an alarming report from a DoorDash delivery driver.
On Tuesday, March 10, the driver, who was at the home for a delivery, noticed an unpleasant odour emanating from the property. Concerned, he contacted law enforcement, which led officers to the scene. Upon arrival, they found Enamorado-Cisnado’s body wrapped in blankets and towels inside a closet, and she was subsequently pronounced dead at the scene.
According to a police statement, Lhis Birito Costa, 23, was arrested the next day in connection with her death. Reports indicate that Costa and Enamorado-Cisnado had previously been in a relationship, and it has been alleged that Costa confessed to shooting her after discovering she was involved with someone else.
Court documents, detailed by local news outlets, reveal that the delivery driver was informed there was a body within the residence, although it remains unclear who provided this information to him. The details surrounding the events leading to Enamorado-Cisnado’s death have sent shockwaves through the community and raised serious questions about the circumstances of the case.
Family and friends have expressed their grief over the loss of Enamorado-Cisnado. In a heartfelt Facebook post, her aunt, Guadalupe Cisneros, described her niece as a “harmless girl” who was loved by many. “It hurts so much in my heart,” Cisneros wrote, lamenting how a tragic end could come so quickly. She also appealed for financial assistance to help repatriate Enamorado-Cisnado’s body to Honduras, her country of origin.
As the investigation unfolds, Costa faced the court on Thursday, where she was formally charged with murder. At this time, it is unclear whether she has entered a plea or secured legal representation. Searches for her case in online court records have yielded no immediate results.
Authorities are continuing to gather information regarding the timeline of events leading up to the murder. The case has garnered significant media attention and serves as a poignant reminder of the issues surrounding domestic violence, particularly in intimate relationships marked by jealousy and betrayal.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is urging anyone who may have information related to the case to come forward. As this situation develops, the local community is left mourning the loss of Enamorado-Cisnado and grappling with the disturbing circumstances of her death.
