Overview

• Prosecutor María Lorena González leads a femicide probe that has ruled out robbery after no valuables were found missing.
• The 15-year-old was ordered into psychiatric care by the fiscal, and her partner Fernando Ruiz Díaz, 24, was detained on alleged encubrimiento.
• Security footage shows a Peugeot 208 arriving at 03:50 with the boyfriend and his father, who leave minutes later with the teen, and a Fiat Cronos at 04:05 from which an unidentified man departs the house.
• Preliminary phone analysis indicates the teen used her mother’s device at about 08:00 to send a work absence message, which authorities view as an attempt to cover up the crime.
• Autopsy and lab results are pending to confirm cause of death as reports diverge between multiple stab wounds and fatal blunt-force trauma, while investigators work to identify the unknown man seen on video.
