Marodi, 49, a captain with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire), was found at her Ramona residence with multiple stab wounds on the night of Feb. 17, after deputies responded to a call for an assault with a deadly weapon, according to a statement from the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies found Rebecca Marodi with multiple stab wounds, and despite life-saving measures, officials said she was pronounced dead on the scene.

Authorities have identified the suspect in the fatal stabbing of the California fire captain who helped battle the Eaton wildfires in Los Angeles as her wife, with officials noting this was not her first murder.

Investigators are seeking 53-year-old Yolanda Marodi, also known as Yolanda Olejniczak, in connection with the killing of Cal Fire Capt. Rebecca Marodi, 49.

The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department on Thursday identified the person they believe to be responsible for stabbing a Cal Fire captain to death in her Ramona home earlier this week.

Rebecca Marodi was found in her San Diego-area home Monday. A woman has been identified as a suspect in her slaying, but her whereabouts are unknown.

Deputies from the San Diego Sheriff's Office responded to a radio call about an assault with a deadly weapon in the 20200 block of Rancho Villa Road in Ramona around 9 p.m., the sheriff's office said in a press release.
