Nearly 30 years later, the woman responsible for her murder, Yolanda Saldívar, could potentially be released from prison in March 2025, and this news has many fans angered!

Saldívar, who was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison, became eligible for parole after serving 30 years of her sentence. The shocking news has sparked a wave of emotions among Selena’s devoted fans, many of whom still honor her legacy as the Queen of Tejano music.

Selena was only 23 years old when she was shot and killed by Saldívar

While parole eligibility doesn’t guarantee release, the mere possibility has reignited discussions about Selena’s life and legacy. Social media platforms have been flooded with posts ranging from heartbreak to outrage. Many fans believe that Saldívar’s release would reopen wounds that have never fully healed.
