Sergio Barraza's Trial for the Murder of Ruby Freire Commenced in April 2010

Sergio Barraza was found not guilty of the murder of Ruby Freire. The now 18-year-old Angel Vayez bravely testified against Sergio in court. He described the moment Sergio bragged about having killed Ruby before burning and dumping her remains. In emotional testimony, Maracela Escobarto said that the defendant had destroyed her heart, her hope, and her faith, but not her life.
