STATEMENT FROM BRONX DISTRICT ATTORNEY DARCEL D. CLARK ON CONVICTIONS IN BRONX DAYCARE MURDER TRIAL

 

Today, a Bronx jury returned guilty verdicts of second-degree Murder, and Assault against the operator of a daycare and her husband in the fentanyl poisoning death of 22-month-old Nicholas Domenici and the exposure of three other children suffered on September 15, 2023. 

Grei Mendez and her husband, Felix Herrera Garcia ran an illegal narcotics operation out of the El Divino Nino daycare on Morris Avenue and showed such depraved indifference that they hid fentanyl under the floor where the children took naps. 

Nothing we can do will bring back Nicholas. His death has torn a hole in the hearts of his mother, father and siblings, and saddened the entire Bronx community. I hope that these convictions will give the family a sense of justice and help them to gain peace and closure.
