Orlando Tercero, 22, has been charged with second-degree murder in Haley Anderson’s death
A nursing student who was found dead in the bed of her jilted former lover reported that her car tires were slashed months before her murder and she suspected that he was behind the deed.
Haley Anderson, 22, a student at Binghamton University in New York, was found dead in classmate Orlando Tercero’s bed on March 9.
After her death he fled the country to Nicaragua where he has dual citizenship, where he was arrested by Nicaraguan authorities Tuesday.
However a police report filed on September 16, six months before her death, reveals that Anderson was suspicious of Tercero’s violent nature.
According to the police report obtained by WBNG Anderson believed Tercero, 22, was behind the slashing of all four of her car tires after the two got into a spat the day prior at a party at his home.
At the party Tercero, with whom she had a previous relationship, got mad at her. He angrily confronted her and shouted at her, supposedly angry at her for dating her on-and-off boyfriend.
He then tried to make amends by pouring shots for Anderson and her friends.
He drank too much and became sick. Anderson reportedly helped him get into bed.

‘Haley stated that she believed but wasn’t sure, that a male named Orlando Tercero, may have been involved with the damage of her vehicle,’ the police report sates.
‘Haley stated that she and Orlando dated for a short time, and that she had gone to a party at his house, 23 Oak St, on 09/15/17. She stated that Orlando had confronted her about dating his friend, her now boyfriend, and that he got very upset and was shouting at her,’ the report said.
‘While I (the investigator) deposed Haley, she advised that she believed that Orlando may have slashed her tires but that she wasn’t sure, and that she did not wish to pursue charges for the damage to her vehicle at this time,’ the report added.

She posted a video of the slashed tires on Snapchat, to which Tercero replied saying his rear tires were also slashed.
He then sent her a screenshot of text messages he sent to his roommates asking if they had slashed his tires.
When she said she was going to file a police report, he said it wasn’t a good idea.
He himself never reported the incident to police.
She told police she was sort out the matter between Tercero and herself.
Tercero was arrested on Tuesday by Nicaragua National Police in connection to Anderson’s death, according to ABC News.
A photo of his arrest reveals Tercero with a bandage across his left eye and a busted lip surrounded by Nicaraguan police wearing balaclavas.
Before he fled to Central America he reportedly told his sister that he had done ‘something bad’ and was a ‘disgrace to the family’.
‘Orlando is being detained by Nicaraguan authorities while matters are being further investigated,’ his attorney, Michael Bachner, told the New York Post.
Police are seeking to extradite Tercero. He was charged with second-degree murder in Anderson’s death on Saturday.
