Detectives said the duplex was engulfed in flames with their mother's body still inside.
The two immediately suspected Moreira, who had been in a relationship with their mother, but they said that around Christmas, they started seeing red flags.
"She started showing up with broken phones, there would be days we couldn’t contact her," Kimberly said.
The two ended things a month ago, the sisters said, but they felt Moreira couldn’t take no for an answer
"She always thought he was never gonna do anything," Eliza said.
Detectives said they found Moreira in Manatee County, where he was taken into custody.
"All we know is they caught him in the state of Florida and that he had burns to his body," Kimberly said.
Moreira is set to be extradited to Broward County. He faces charges of felony murder, as well as arson and cruelty to an animal.
