Woman accused in death of ex’s new girlfriend among FBI’s most wanted

DALLAS — A Dallas woman accused of arranging for a hit man to kill a dentist who was dating her ex-boyfriend has been added to the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted fugitives list.

Brenda Delgado is wanted for capital murder and unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. The FBI has offered a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to her arrest.

The 33-year-old dental hygienist student was added to the most wanted list Wednesday. She is the only woman on the list.

Delgado is charged in the September death of 35-year-old Dr. Kendra Hatcher, who was fatally shot in the parking garage of a Dallas apartment complex. Police have arrested the suspected gunman.

Investigators say Delgado was jealous because Hatcher was dating the fugitive’s ex-boyfriend and had recently been introduced to his parents.
