Marlen Ochoa Lopez

Ep 59: A 19-year-old pregnant woman was looking for some second-hand baby-gear in an online forum for expecting mothers where she found a generous offer of free baby clothes. After traveling to the home where she was supposed to pick up the items, it became clear she was the unfortunate target of an elaborate plot. What was the twisted motive behind this crime?
