The murder of Carolina, a 31-year-old woman, by her partner Ricardo Pérez, known as "El Canallín", has shocked the public. The tragic event took place in the streets of the Álvaro Obregón borough on the night of May 1st. According to journalistic sources, Ricardo attacked Carolina with a knife in broad daylight after a discussion triggered by his infidelity with a relative of the victim.
After committing the crime, Ricardo Pérez attempted to flee but was captured the next day by agents of the Mexico City Citizen Security Secretariat in a search operation. It was immediately revealed that the couple had recently arrived from San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, to settle in the Santa Fe area, within the same borough where the events occurred.
Ricardo Pérez was identified as the aggressor who stalked and pursued Carolina through the streets until he violently caused her death in an act of extreme brutality. The relationship between the victim and the aggressor was marked by abuse, jealousy, and control on his part, according to various journalistic reports.
The heartbreaking crime has generated a wave of outrage and dismay in society, highlighting the urgent need to address gender violence and ensure the safety and protection of women. Authorities are investigating the case to determine the legal situation of Ricardo Pérez for femicide and other possible crimes related to the unfortunate event.
