South Omaha matriarch dies after brutal rape, beating

South Omaha matriarch dies after brutal rape, beating - Omaha.com:
When their husbands went off to World War II, Louise Sollowin and her sister bought a house in South Omaha and moved in together.

There, she held court in the kitchen, whipping up vast meals and, as she did, shooing people from her sacred domain. 

The house is where she sewed drapes and pajamas for her grandchildren.

And it was where the 93-year-old woman met her end in brutal fashion, where she was sexually assaulted and pummeled in her bed by an intruder, according to Omaha police.

Sollowin died Wednesday at the Nebraska Medical Center, four days after the attack carried out by a man she did not know......
Sergio Martinez-Perez, 19, beat and raped Sollowin because he had been drinking much of the previous night and was “angry with women,” a prosecutor told a Douglas County Court judge Wednesday. 

....U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has asked the jail to hold him, an official there said. That is often an indication that the federal agency is questioning an inmate's immigration status.
