"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat
Rossana Delgado, a mother of two, was found 120 miles away from where she was last seen in April 2021
The family of a rideshare driver kidnapped and murdered in Georgia in 2021 will finally have some closure after nine drug traffickers pleaded guilty in her case.
Rossana Delgado, a 37-year-old mother of two, was killed in April 2021 after she was kidnapped by several members of a drug trafficking organization.
Police say the Barrow County mother was "lured" to the Plaza Fiesta mall northeast of Atlanta under the guise of going on a shopping trip — but was then kidnapped by a group and taken to several locations over the next couple of days.
According to 11Alive.com, Delgado's husband said his wife told him she was dropping off one last passenger and then coming home for the day. He became worried after Delgado didn't return later that night. He then traced his wife's last moves through her phone, finding a bloody face mask at one of the locations she had been, which led compelled him to call police.
Investigators were led to a rural cabin that was rented through an online app using a stolen identity. There, investigators found Delgado's body four days after she was reported missing, 120 miles away from where she was last seen.
"At the cabin [the suspects] did torture Delgado prior to her death and eventually carried out the killing of Delgado and dismemberment and burning of Delgado's body," the Appalachian Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office said in a press release last week, announcing the latest details in the case.
Police first said they were searching for five suspects in connection to Delgado's death. But in its press release, the district attorney's office say nine people have pleaded guilty to crimes connected with the Georgia mother's kidnapping and murder.
After Delgado's murder, several of the suspects had fled to Mexico. A month after Delgado's murder, the district attorney's office says four of the suspects were apprehended in Mexico and extradited to the United States.
In all, a grand jury indicted 14 people on charges in connection to Delgado's kidnapping and murder, while all nine suspects in custody pleaded guilty before the trial was set to begin this month. Two people, Oscar Manuel Garcia and Juan Ayala-Rodriguez, were sentenced to life in prison for the murder.
The office says police are still searching for three more suspects.
"It is my hope, even though this matter remains open, that the resolutions and sentences entered at this time will assist the family and loved ones of Rossana Delgado in beginning to obtain closure," District Attorney B. Alison Sosebee said in a statement.
motive?
ReplyDeleteThey're piece of shit dope dealers. There's your fucking motive son.
DeleteSol - you’re a gangsta.
DeleteRip.
ReplyDeleteDamned Mexican style killings, coming to Georgia. Kidnap, Torture, Dismemberment, Burn. Then they run to Mexico.

Deletethat ain't nothing..
General Sherman came to Atlanta in 1864 and burned the whole damn place down..
🦎
Your reply just blew him away like a Sherman Tank.
Delete4:46 are you trying to say your 100 years old. You're really an old Fart.🤔
Delete@01:34 oh that's nothing. I woke up one day in Atlanta and all of my neighbors were dead and had sideways Zs cut into their chest (looking more like an N).
DeleteAlso, the cartel regularly beheads people, lights them on fire in tires with gasoline, murders entire families in Mexico and the USA, and bribes corrupt officials in local and state governments of the United States of Mexico and the United States of America.
8:05 that never made it to the news.
DeleteI smell Pinocchio, you might as well say 3 families were killed.😅🤪.
I've been to Plaza Fiesta a time or two. For me an immersive experience into Mexican culture. A great maze of interesting shops and kiosks and a food court. Packed on the weekends. Delicious food ( naturally.) I'll try some nopales next time I go.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I was in Atlanta there was this underground mall that seemed cool to be in.
DeleteOkra reminds me of nopales. Firm yet a little slimy in texture with a slightly sour/savory flavor.
Delete2:40
DeleteOkra was the food of the pharaohs..
Maybe brought to the new world by Africans kidnapped into slavery..
Nutritious, but yeah, super slimy..
🦎
Some nice okra, Starks, chopped into pieces and fried in a cast-iron skillet full of oil after they’ve been dipped in cornmeal delicious without the slime
DeletePlaza Fiesta has great food. I mean usually people just shoot up fetty on the sidewalk and then shoplift from the Burlington Coat Factory to grab a couple tacos and some Agua Jamaica.
Delete@03:59 and how the fuck would you know?
DeleteI’m sure she was sexually abused just no physical evidence!! Que descanse en Paz!! The guilty hopefully will burn 🔥 in Hell
ReplyDeleteWhat makes you think that? Because she was Blonde?
DeleteDelgado was a drug dealer and was ordered to be killed from prison. The ATL is full of this type crime now since the Mexican cartels started setting up shop there. It was not always that way. It’s a small city of 500,000 and is mostly democratic and has the same issues that other cities I n the south now have. Cities like Memphis Birmingham Jackson St. Louis
ReplyDeleteBaton Rouge New Orleans all are poorly run mismanaged dumps…
I’m sorry but Atlanta has always been a very progressive and up and coming city. Especially to call itself a southern city. But yes you are correct all the cities in the south have high murder rates. And it’s mostly drug related. All those cities you just name are hubs for drugs.
DeleteAtlanta is progressive alright. Progressively getting worse like northern cities such as Detroit Chicago and Milwaukee…
DeleteYeah big cities, big problems.In the smaller cities and towns it's better since most of the population are trees.
DeleteLooks like driver was a dealer/carrier and she either owed money or weight, lost a load, or snitched after being caught. Being lured to a shopping spree is always a way for those loving the lavish lifestyle, it works. “Hey, we forgive you, I owe you an apology, let me buy you some clothes and whatever you want…” and then they get killed. That’s easy prey and it’s been going on for years. Sorry, but she doesn’t seem so innocent
ReplyDelete@4:53 yeah looks like you’re right on the money she was very pretty to be just a ride share/taxi driver. People weren’t the only thing she was transporting around the city’s.
DeleteWhen will these "hitmen" figure out that it's possible to commit murder undetected, and it's possible to own and use a cellphone, but you CAN'T do both things at the same time..
ReplyDeleteNot even taking the pila out will keep the thing from merrily pinging away, and if it pings in sync, same time and place with your victim's phone, then the two devices are like two peas in a pod, and ripe for investigation..
It's called gathering evidence, all the homicide cops do it..
🦎
No sheet Sherlock 🤣
DeleteThese Sicario‘s are throwaways to the cartel leaders, so you’re not dealing with geniuses and have you ever seen the videos of the fire fights on here I’m sure you have… These outlaws in Mexico are not the greatest marksman far from it. It seems there method of operation when firing a weapon is to hold it and pointed towards, the target not necessarily aiming at all and just squeeze the trigger and fire a clip towards the victim or proposed victim. Due to the nature of automatic weapons. They can’t control the rifle and usually end up hitting absolutely nothing but the ground and air
DeleteSo who are the three people in the first picture above.
ReplyDeleteHard core criminals.
DeleteI think these are the three that havent been caught yet
