murder story

Together with her sisters, María de Jesús played a significant role in operating the prostitution ring at "Rancho El Ángel" from 1950 to 1964. The sisters employed deceptive tactics to recruit young women, whom they then subjected to forced drug addiction, physical abuse, and coerced prostitution. Victims who became ill, were deemed unattractive, or were no longer profitable were murdered through various means. The operation was dismantled in 1964 when authorities discovered numerous bodies on their property.​

María de Jesús was arrested, convicted of multiple charges including murder and human trafficking, and sentenced to 40 years in prison. She served her sentence and was released at an unspecified date. She died in 1990 after her release.​
