As per the claims reported by an unidentified friend, Milagros Angelica Medina made an effort to break up with her boyfriend before she was fatally stabbed.

She said:

"It was really gruesome. Her five children saw it, [along with] her three-year-old son. There was a lot of blood splattered everywhere. The blood went onto him [the 3-year-old], and that's what really broke me."

She also reported that one of the children had allegedly tried to help their mother as she was being stabbed.

She continued:

"Her (Medina's) 11-year-old daughter tried to defend the mom. I thought it was really brave, but they (the children) shouldn't be going through this."

Another family friend, Lulu, claimed that despite contacting the police before this occurrence, nothing was done.

She said:

"It's a shame the system is supposed to help us and unless they see blood, then they're not there. It's unfortunate that the police have to respond to a violent act for them to help when they've [family] called previously for the same type of violence and aggression at home."

Lulu concluded:

"They [police] should be more readily available to help and offer resources to the community, to women that are reaching out and calling for help and unfortunately, a friend passed away due to the act of violence at home by a so-called loved one."

Anyone with information about the case is urged to call either Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-TIPS or the Homicide Bureau of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department at (323) 890-5500.
