MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – Jeanette Berrios, a mother of three, was walking home after work on Saturday in deep south Miami-Dade, but she never made it.
Detectives found Berrios, 50, dead on a cold and stormy early morning on Southwest 304th Street near South Dixie Highway.
“It was raining so bad that day, and I remember that day being scared in my house,” said Christine Sotomayor, Berrio’s niece.
“And now, I am wondering how scared was she, when she was there.
Berrios’ family is asking the public for help with the cost of the funeral, and they are also asking anyone with information about the fatal hit-and-run crash to call 305-471-8477.
