About	guess this happened in April 2004... copied from times standard newspapers. EUREKA MURDER: Sandra Santana, a 30-year-old resident of Eureka and mother of three, was found dead in her Henderson Center home at 11:30 p.m. Saturday night, presumably a victim of murder. The next morning, police in Skagit County, Wash., arrested the only suspect in Santana's death -- her husband, 31-year-old Abraham Dejesus Santana -- after he flipped his car on a county road. Detective Ron Harpham of the Eureka Police Department said Monday that at the time of Santana's arrest, Skagit police noted that he was suffering from self-inflicted wounds. Harpham also said that Santana had recently lost his job. While he declined to give many specific details on the crime, Harpham noted that all three of Santana's children, whose ages he gave as 2, 3 and 5, were alone in their home on C Street with their mother's body from the time she was killed -- which police believed happened Friday night or Saturday morning -- until they were found by relatives late Saturday night. They were unharmed, at least physically. Sandra Santana was pregnant at the time of her death. SANTANA CONVICTED: Eureka resident Abraham Dejesus Santana, 31, pleaded guilty Sept. 15 to the murder of his wife, Sandra Lynn Santana, in April. Judge Christopher Wilson gave Santana a sentence of 26 years to life. Sandra Santana, who was pregnant at the time of her death, was a mother of three small children, all of whom were left alone with their mother's lifeless body for several hours before relatives discovered what had taken place.
