Husband arrested in death of wife. Lemoore police cite prior domestic violence incident

A Lemoore man faces a murder charge in the Oct. 25 death of his wife in an apparent domestic violence homicide, police reported Wednesday.

Jesse Corrales, 44, was booked into the Kings County Jail.

Lemoore police reported that officers initially went to the 600 block of East Deodar Lane to investigate a domestic violence incident but did not find a victim.

Later on Oct. 25, police in Hanford went to an address in that city, where they discovered a person who turned out to be the victim in the Lemoore incident.

After conducting interviews, detectives determined that the victim died from wounds at the Lemoore address, according to Lemoore police.

Police asked that anyone with additional information call Lemoore police at 559-924-9574.
