Now this is cold hearted.

New video of Derek Medina, the man who killed his wife and posted it on Facebook, shows him walking into a Miami police station just moments after the fatal shooting.

Calm, detached and composed, the 31-year-old strolls in the station to confess the grisly murder to police officers. The security camera footage shows Medina speaking to a person at the desk before quietly sitting in a chair.

According to the Miami Herald:

In the 23-second surveillance video, Medina’s father can be seen pacing back and forth, his hands deep inside his pockets.

The video, released by the Miami-Dade Police Department, shows Medina wearing a gray sleeveless tanktop and blue jeans as he walks up to the counter, to speak to someone at the service window before taking a seat in the police station’s lobby.

The video suggests that after posting a photograph of his dead wife on Facebook with the comment, “Rip Jennifer Alfonso,” Medina wasted no time in going to the police to confess. But it was his Facebook status that told the story first.
“Facebook people you’ll see me in the news,’’ Medina wrote next to the ghoulish photo on his page that remained public for hours Thursday. Then, with no hint of remorse, he confessed to the world that he had shot his 26-year-old wife, Jennifer Alfonso.

Medina said he shot Alfonso following an argument during which she threatened to leave him. On Facebook, he said his wife was striking him. “I’m not going to stand anymore with the abuse so I did what I did,” he wrote.

He also told police that he shot her multiple times after she picked up a kitchen knife, then began punching and kicking him.

Medina is now on suicide watch in a Miami-Dade jail. He is being held without bail.
