Summary based on 3 sources
Baldemar Hernandez, a 25-year-old realtor from McAllen, Texas, moved to San Antonio with his boyfriend and business partner, Eric Florke, 39, in November 2013. The couple was found dead in their San Antonio home on January 11, 2014, by neighbors who noticed their garage door had been left open for days. The San Antonio Police Department investigated the scene and determined it to be a possible murder-suicide, with Florke identified as the suspect and Hernandez as the victim. A handgun was recovered from the scene, and a neighbor reported hearing two gunshots but did not think much of it at the time.

The investigation revealed that both men had gunshot wounds, and there appeared to be a struggle before their deaths. The San Antonio Police Department could not confirm if the bodies had been released to family members and did not disclose the names of the deceased in their report. The couple had recently moved into the house and were in the process of redecorating. Neighbors described Hernandez as a positive and happy person who always had a smile on his face.

The case was treated as a murder-suicide, and no further arrests or suspects were identified in connection with the deaths. The San Antonio Police Department did not provide additional details on any ongoing investigations or litigations related to the incident.
