Wallerstein was murdered by his housekeeper, Mayre Melendez Lopez, who beat her employer with a baseball bat, then, trying to cover up her crime, dumped his body in a car and set the vehicle on fire. Lopez claimed that she acted out of self-defense, and was not found guilty in any of the manslaughter charges. [1]
