Miranda Galguera

Miranda Galguera was the killer of her daughter, Jenny Galguera in Once Upon a Crime (Case #88, or Case #32 of Pacific Bay).

Profile
Miranda is the mother of the late Jenny Galguera, a teen soap sensation in Ivywood.

Miranda wears a blue medieval princess dress and wears a glittering tiara on her head, suggesting the many princess roles she played in her acting career. Moreso Miranda read the Glass Princess, but has also shown dependency of anti-aging cream and anti-depressants. Besides that, Miranda wears rose earrings on both of her ears and wears an access badge on her lanyard.

Role in Case(s)
Miranda was an actress who primarily played roles involving fictional princesses, but was found guilty of murder after evidence incriminated her as her daughter's killer.

Miranda was aghast when Frank and the player incriminated her as the killer as she claimed to have loved her daughter more than anything else. Moreso Miranda showed signs of emotional instability suggesting that she felt regret for the murder, but Frank continuously grilled her for juvenile homicide. Miranda eventually knelt before the player's investigative expertise so Frank permitted the player to ship Miranda to court.

All Judge Dante remembered was Jenny's annoying voice when he watched a couple of soap opera episodes with his granddaughter but with that aside, Judge Dante wanted an explanation as to why Miranda killed Jenny. Miranda wanted to help Jenny out during her rehearsal of a screen adaption of Gaston Dumas's The Glass Princess, but her emotional insecurities caused her to assume that she bothered Jenny more than she helped out, which prompted Jenny to inform her mother that she didn't need her throughout the play. Miranda and Jenny looked at the mirror and realized that Miranda was once a beautiful princess but due to her age, she could no longer be what Jenny was, so she slammed her daughter in anger and stabbed her to death with broken glass. Miranda wanted the court to know how much she sacrificed her life to raise Jenny, to which when she was pregnant with the victim, she had to put her career on hold, and due to a divorce not explained in the game, Miranda had to raise Jenny by herself. Miranda wasn't happy when Jenny cared about her own fame more than Miranda, which drove the mother to a thirst for blood. Judge Dante heard enough and informed Miranda that there was no excuse for blood to be shed, so he gave a 30-year jail sentence for Miranda.
