Nedenia Post Dye worked with young people who had problems with drink and drugs. The Black who murdered her was one of them.

The great-granddaughter of General Foods founder and heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post has been found slain at her luxury spa resort on the Caribbean island of Roatan, Honduras police said Friday.
Roatan police chief Alex Madrid said Nedenia Post Dye, 46, was found stabbed in her room on December 22. He said police had arrested a local singer whom Dye was helping quit drugs.

‘She was a good woman who worked with young people at risk, drug addicts and alcoholics,’ Madrid said.

The suspect, Lenin Roberto Arana, 25, told police that he and Dye had been romantically involved, Madrid said. Arana, who used the stage name ‘The Canary,’ told local reporters that he was innocent.

Local 'musician' Lenin Roberto Arana was captured wearing blood soaked clothing as he tried to flee in the victim's car.

Madrid said Dye had been living for 15 years on Roatan, where she ran the Baan Suerte luxury spa.

Dye, of Santa Monica, California, told an alumni publication of her alma mater, George Washington University, last year that she shared a love of risk-taking and adventure with her great-grandmother, who inherited the cereal company that she eventually turned into General Foods Inc.

‘My friend and I had an idea to start a business,’ Dye told the alumni magazine. ‘I wanted to go to Asia but she said “No, Central America is closer. If (the business) fails, we can swim home.”‘
