The whole story was already tragic enough, but what came after made it even more chilling. At first, the authorities were convinced they were closing in on Teresa's whereabouts. They were almost certain that they would get news about her location soon, and once that happened, catching her was only a matter of time. Everyone wanted her behind bars before she could slip away or try anything else. But while the cops were doing their thing, something much darker was happening in the background. Beyond just finding Teresa, the family of Mariana and even one of her closest friends started receiving threatening messages. These weren't random insults or anonymous trolls, no, these were direct, frightening words meant to scare them into silence.

The messages basically told them to shut up, withdraw the complaint, and keep their mouths closed if they didn't want to end up like Mariana. They even warned them not to go to the press, not to spread the story to the media, or there would be serious consequence. Imagine that, already destroyed by what had happened to their daughter, and now being terrorized into silence. Most families might have backed off. But Mariana's family wasn't built like that. Even though fear was gnawing at them day and night, they decided they weren't going to stop. They wanted justice for Mariana, no matter what it took.

They told the police about the threats, and the Attorney General's office stepped in to provide them with protection measures. The family wasn't alone anymore, the system was now officially watching their backs. Meanwhile, Miguel, Mariana's father, held on to a fragile threat of hope. He clung to the idea that his daughter could survive. When speaking to a local news outlet, he explained that the doctors needed at least seven days to evaluate her condition, to wait and see if she pulled through. Those seven days were like an eternity for the family. Every hour mattered, every update from the hospital came with both dread and hope mixed into it. Miguel also used that moment in the spotlight to send out a desperate plea, he asked for everyone's help in finding Teresa.

He said outright that the woman wasn't just a threat to their family, she was a danger to anyone who crossed paths with her. If the public cooperated, he argued, maybe they could prevent her from fleeing the country. His words were powerful. They reminded everyone, especially the authorities, that this wasn't a time to drag their feet. They needed to act fast. And finally, their efforts paid off. On May 3, 2000, Teresa was arrested in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca. For the first time since the nightmare began, the family felt a bit of relief.

Once the Attorney General's office dug into the case, they confirmed what many already suspected, Teresa had been romantically involved with Diego. That detail alone gave investigators a new perspective. Maybe, just maybe, the attack had been some twisted form of revenge. Remember, Mariana had already filed a gender violence complaint against Diego. Could it be that Teresa attacked her to protect him, or to get back at Mariana for speaking up? That theory suddenly made sense. The following day, May 4th, the case

case officially began to move forward in court. The first hearing took place, and the control judge ruled that Teresa would face trial for attempted homicide. Because she had fled after the attack, the judge determined she was a flight risk. That meant no bail. She was going to stay in prison under preventative detention while prosecutors worked on building the case. The judge gave them three months to complete their investigation. In the meantime, the community surrounding Mariana's family was growing louder. People were outraged. They didn't want this to be classified as just attempted homicide. To them, this was clearly an attempted femicide. Neighbors, friends, activists, they all organized protests, demanding that the charges

be reclassified. They wanted the system to recognize what really happened. But the brief comfort that the family had felt from Teresa's capture was ripped away almost instantly. That very same day, Mariana's heart gave out. She died in the hospital, unable to survive the damage caused by the brutal attack. For her family, it was like being stabbed all over again. The news shattered them. Their daughter, who had fought so hard, was gone. And yet, even in that darkest moment, her parents chose to honor the spirit of whom

Mariana was. She had always been described as generous, kind, someone who thought of others before herself. Staying true to that, her parents made the heartbreaking but noble decision to donate her organs. Their reasoning was simple but powerful, even if Mariana couldn't continue her own life, she could give others the chance to live theirs. Through that act, her death wouldn't be meaningless. Three days later, on May 6, 2023, the city came together to say goodbye. At two in the afternoon, a funeral mass was held for Marianna. Her coffin was carried into the church, and the moment was unlike any other. Instead of silence, she was welcomed with applause, a collective thank you for the positive impact she had during her short life. When the

Ceremony ended, a massive caravan of people dressed in white filled the streets. White was chosen as a symbol of peace, respect, and love. Together, they accompanied her body all the way to the municipal cemetery, where she was laid to rest. But Mariana's story didn't end with her burial. If anything, that moment ignited a new chapter in the fight for justice. The family and her friends weren't satisfied with Teresa's arrest. They believed, deep down, that Teresa hadn't acted alone.

They were convinced that the real mastermind behind the tragedy was Diego. To them, Teresa was only a pawn. So they took the fight to social media. Hashtags like hashtag Justice for Mariana began spreading, turning into a rallying cry. They demanded that the authorities investigate Diego and his possible role in the crime. Even though the threats against the family continued, still trying to silence them, they refused to back down. On June 17, 2023, Miguel himself organized a caravan that marched straight to the Attorney General's office. This wasn't just symbolic, it was a bold, public demand for Diego to be investigated.

Miguel even revealed in an interview that he had tried reaching out to the state governor, asking him to intervene and push the case forward. But the governor never responded. That silence stung. Miguel criticized the excuse of independent powers, pointing out that in Mexico, political figures absolutely could influence cases if they wanted to. He wasn't asking for corruption or favoritism, he was asking for justice for his daughter. As the summer went on, frustration only grew. By August 2023, the three-month period that the judge had given the prosecutors had already,

passed. Yet the case seemed stuck, like it had been thrown into quicksand. Teresa was in custody, yes, but Diego was still walking free. That wasn't acceptable to Mariana's loved ones. They kept pressing, louder than ever, for Diego to be tracked down. It was during that time that one of Mariana's closest friends spoke out. She revealed something that hadn't been widely known, Mariana had tried to report Diego multiple times before. She had attempted to denounce him for the physical, emotional, and psychological abuse he inflicted on her. But each time, the authorities brushed her off, minimizing her words as if they didn't matter. Hearing that detail added salt to the wound. The system could

have protected her, could have intervened earlier, but they didn't. That revelation only strengthened the family's resolve. Mariana's death wasn't just about Teresa's race. it was part of a larger failure to listen to women when they cry for help the family was determined that this case would not fade into silence like so many others to be continued
