Netflix’s 2025 documentary Selena y Los Dinos explores pop icon Selena Quintanilla’s murder at the hands of her former friend and business associate, Yolanda Saldívar.

Quintanilla — the “Queen of Tejano Music” — was only 23 years old when she was shot dead in Corpus Christi, Texas, in March 1995. Saldívar — once a trusted friend and president of Quintanilla’s fan club— was accused of embezzling thousands of dollars from the musician’s businesses months before the shooting.

Following the strong public outcry over Quintanilla’s death, Nueces County, Texas, medical examiners agreed to conduct an autopsy just three hours after the singer’s death. The coroner’s report eventually ruled Quintanilla’s death a homicide, despite Saldívar claiming the shooting was accidental.
