On Saturday the body of Keishla Rodriguez Ortiz, 27, was discovered in a lagoon outside of Carolina, Puerto Rico. Rodriguez had been missing since last Thursday morning.
Last night lightweight boxer Felix Verdejo, 27, turned himself into authorities in San Juan. Shortly after he was charged with kidnapping resulting in death, carjacking resulting in death and killing an unborn child. If convicted Verdejo could receive a death sentence.
According to the New York Times Verdejo’s charges are the result of information Puerto Rico’s FBI branch acquired from a witness who had “firsthand, personal knowledge” of what took place.
