FGJCDMX Assembles Case in Fatal CCH Sur Stabbing as Suspect Remains Under Guard

Prosecutors say the evidence file now supports criminal action for homicide and injuries, with formal steps to follow once the hospitalized student can be processed.

Overview

  • The investigation includes necropsy results, witness statements, security camera analyses and a reconstruction of events that prosecutors say allow them to pursue charges against Lex Ashton.
  • A UNAM law professor notes the 19-year-old is under police custody in a hospital but not formally detained, and that authorities may seek either an initial hearing citation or an arrest warrant.
  • FGJCDMX sources confirmed the authenticity of an initial IMSS psychiatric evaluation circulating online and said a fuller forensic assessment is underway as part of the case file.
  • The hospital report and media accounts describe a diagnosis of a major depressive episode and a family psychiatric history, and attribute to Ashton statements about planning to attack at least six people.
  • Posts linked to Red Pill and incel discourse, including a message expressing intent to “retribuir” harm, have been reported along with online fan pages praising the attacker, though any ideological motive remains unproven in court.
