The father of Selena Quintanilla , who was brutally murdered in 1995, has lashed out against a new Oxygen documentary featuring her convicted killer, Yolanda Saldívar.
The Texas-born Selena, a Grammy-winning singing sensation known as the “Queen of Tejano Music,” was only 23 when she was shot to death by Saldívar, her confidant, agent and president of her fan club, in a hotel room in Corpus Christi, Texas, in March 1995.
The two-part docuseries, “Selena and Yolanda: The Secrets Between Them,” premieres Feb. 17 at 8 p.m. on Oxygen, which is devoted to true-crime programming.
Selena’s father, Abraham Quintanilla, was interviewed by TMZ about the documentary — which he called “nothing but lies” — and added that the family was not involved, according to the Daily Mail.
Abraham told TMZ that he “wants absolutely nothing to do with Yolanda since “everything she says is nothing but lies.”
