Judge Orders Pretrial Detention for Isidro “N” in Mexicali Feminicide Case

The ruling follows prosecutors’ feminicide accusation in the killing of 22-year-old Michelle.

Overview

  • At an initial hearing Friday evening, a control judge imposed preventive custody on Isidro “N” after prosecutors formally presented a feminicide charge.
  • The defense requested the 144-hour constitutional period to define his legal status, with a follow-up hearing set for Wednesday, September 24 at 9 a.m.
  • State investigators say an argument preceded the strangulation, the victim was removed from the home, and she died inside a vehicle despite medical attention.
  • The Baja California Fiscalía executed an arrest warrant Friday morning after Mexicali municipal police detained the suspect Wednesday night and reported seizing a cutter.
  • Authorities reported no prior formal complaints despite frequent conflicts, while relatives said Michelle sought to end the relationship and shared posts flagged as threats.
