Domestic Violence Murder-Suicide at Palm Springs store

Irma Felix, 44, of Cathedral City was the owner of pet grooming business in Palm Springs where her former boyfriend, Oscar Hernandez, 42, assaulted and killed her on November 9th. Just as the store opened, he stormed and confronted her. A 911 tape caught the argument as an emergency call was made at the time. As officers arrived on the scene, they heard 3 gunshots and broke through the window to find both of them dead.
In July 2003, Felix filed for a TRO against Hernandez for trying to choke her. Despite the protective order he continued to harass, stalk and threaten her, even calling to say what clothes she was currently wearing. She had made frequent police reports and had him arrested in previous incidents.
