According to the records, Dorado’s wife allegedly told police that while she and her husband were still married and shared a child, she had begun a “sexual relationship” with someone else after she and Dorado separated. When he came to the hotel, he allegedly demanded that she come down to see him and he accused her of cheating on him.
Dorado’s wife told police that she and the other man acquiesced to his demands and came down to the hotel’s lobby, where Dorado allegedly punched the other man and cut his arm.
Police stated that they found a knife in Dorado’s vehicle.
