A registered sex offender in New Jersey allegedly stabbed his fiancée to death — just one day after sharing a video of him publicly proposing to her and professing his love, authorities said.
Jose Melo, 52, was nabbed last week after his wife-to-be, Naket Jadix Trinidad Maldonado, 31, was found dead inside a home in Elizabeth on Dec. 30, according to the Union County Prosecutor’s Office.
The mother of two’s body was found after cops responded to reports of the stabbing just after 9 a.m.
The grim discovery came roughly 24 hours after Melo — a local DJ and ex-con — shared footage on Facebook of the moment he dropped to one knee in their local Bamboleo Night Club.
