Police Investigate Suspicious Death Of Woman In San Diego

SAN DIEGO, CA — Authorities were investigating a woman's suspicious death at her San Diego home.

Jadeline Laurent, 28, was found dead shortly before 9 p.m. Monday at a home in the 4300 block of Euclid Avenue, according to the San Diego Police Department. There were "no obvious signs of trauma," so the department's Homicide Unit was not contacted, Lt. Jonathan Dungan said.

On Tuesday, investigators learned Laurent was involved in an altercation prior to her death, Dungan said. Homicide detectives were working with the San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office to determine the cause and manner of her death.

Detectives were looking for Jean Tercier, 39, who was called a "person of interest" in the case, Dungan said. Laurent was in a relationship with Tercier, and they may have been married.

Tercier is of Haitian descent and was described as 5 feet 11 inches tall and 180 pounds. His whereabouts were unknown, Dungan said.

Anyone with information about the case was asked to call the department's Homicide Unit at 619-531-2293 or San Diego County Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.
