Mom Realizes Her Son Is Wanted for Murder

The episode details a criminal investigation into the 2022 shooting death of 16-year-old Yose Ruiz in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Witnesses initially reported conflicting details about the getaway vehicle, but police eventually identified a car belonging to Elizabeth Ortiz Chavez, the mother of the victim's girlfriend. Investigators discovered that Ruiz had been lured to the scene for an arranged fight with the mother's son, Angelo Baldonado, following a history of domestic disputes. Although Angelo was initially arrested for the homicide, social media messages from his half-brother revealed that his mother was the actual shooter. The case concluded with the revelation that Elizabeth had allowed her son to take the blame under the assumption that he would receive a lighter juvenile sentence. Ultimately, Elizabeth was sentenced to 18 years for second-degree murder, while Angelo remained in custody for his role in the deadly conspiracy.
