He showed up at her funeral with flowers. A week later, he was arrested and charged with her murder. Family and friends in Tijuana, Mexico, say 20-year-old Marbella Valdez was stalked even after death by her alleged killer.
Juan, right, who has been arrested in connection with the disappearance and murder of Marbella Valdez, puts a floral arrangement on her grave, alongside her ex-boyfriend Jairo Solano, during her funeral at a cemetery in Tijuana, Mexico, Friday, Feb. 14, 2020. Juan, who sent her gifts and brought food for her friends, demanded police solve her case after the 20-year-old law student's body, beaten, bound and strangled, was found at a Tijuana garbage dump. Juan has insisted on his innocence.
“And the guy showed up at the funeral and we had to shut our mouths, which was the hardest thing in the world,” said William H. Messick, a San Diego software executive who has run a self-funded non-profit since 2014 to help youngsters like Marbella as they age out of orphanages. While he never legally adopted her, Marbella considered him a father.
Marbella had grown up in a Tijuana orphanage and Messick paid her rent and ensured she went to school. In return, he expected she would go to church and not allow any men, even him, into her apartment. Juan would show up to the gas station where she worked, and bring breakfast to all Marbella’s co-workers.

Katy Perry Says She and Taylor Swift Are Too Busy to Be Close FriendsLast week, I made a mental ranking of people I would text back were they to locate me on my remote, technology-free sabbatical. I don’t usually order my friends by importance in such a flagrant, probably selfish way, but this would likely be my only vacation for some time! I needed to control the flow of information from the outside world in some manageable way, lest I abandon my time off and needlessly check my phone. I’m sure very busy women like Katy Perry and Taylor Swift would understand!\n
