South Brunswick: A heartbreaking situation unfolded when Lauren Saldana, a 38-year-old mother of four, was murdered. Her kids, including a tiny 3-week-old baby and a 5-year-old boy who witnessed the tragedy, are now left without their mom.

On January 9th, Lauren was taken from her family in a senseless act of violence. The fundraiser for her children describes the family as “shattered” and emphasizes the deep grief they are experiencing.

Authorities have identified Roman Romanovskiy, 41, as the suspect in her death. They noted that he and Lauren knew each other, so it wasn’t a random act. However, the details of their relationship remain unclear.

It’s been reported that Lauren had a restraining order against Romanovskiy, which adds another layer of tragedy to this situation. She leaves behind not just her baby but also a 19-year-old and a 15-year-old.

The GoFundMe campaign highlights the special needs of her 5-year-old son, who witnessed his mother’s murder. The family is working to ensure he gets the care and support he needs to heal from this trauma.

While the exact cause of Lauren’s death hasn’t been disclosed, the fundraiser suggests that domestic violence played a significant role in this horrific event. They describe her death as occurring in a “heinous and disgusting way.”

As of Wednesday afternoon, the fundraiser had raised over $17,000. The funds will help cover funeral costs and immediate needs for the children, with any remaining money going into a trust for them.

Romanovskiy is facing serious charges, including first-degree murder and endangering the welfare of a child. He’s currently being held at the Middlesex County Adult Correctional Center.
