Robin Mendez, 69, was charged with first-degree murder this week in the death of his wife, Barbara Mendez. The daughters also told investigators they were aware that their father was spending a lot of time with the 14-year-old girl in 1982, according to the 36-page complaint. Barbara Mendez was found bludgeoned to death at her workplace, the Park City Credit Union in Minocqua, in April 1982. The charges filed in the case this week are based largely on circumstantial evidence, not DNA, Hook said. “Some people were still around and had excellent memories because of how traumatic the case was,” Hook said.
