RI Suspect Had Previous Murder Charged Dismissed The man charged with killing two women and kidnapping a 2-year-old boy in Rhode Island has a criminal history that includes a previous murder arrest. Daniel Rodriguez was charged in the 2003 shooting death of 26-year-old Tyrone Tate in a Providence housing project. Court records show that case was dismissed in 2006 after a witness failed to appear in court. Rodriguez was also charged in 2007 with the attempted kidnapping of a former girlfriend. WJAR-TV reports that case was dropped when she refused to testify. Rodriguez is now charged with killing another ex-girlfriend, 40-year-old Evelyn Burgos, and her daughter, 25-year-old Vanessa Perez in Johnston on Sunday. He also is accused of abducting Burgos' 2-year-old son, Isaiah Perez, who was later found unharmed in Providence. Burgos recently sought a restraining order against Rodriguez.
