She Trusted a Stranger - They Took Her Baby, Left Her Body
A pregnant woman posted in a local Facebook swap group asking for newborn items and three days later was dead; her baby was found alive while her body was recovered from a cistern in Juárez, Nuevo León. The kindness of a stranger, six hundred pesos, and a changed meeting place turned ordinary generosity into a premeditated trap - how did a visit with diapers become a murder and kidnapping?
In this episode, we recount the timeline from Mónica Segura’s May 24, 2020 Facebook post to the last confirmed signal from her phone at 4:56 p.m. on June 1, 2020, following messages, meetings, and the woman who used the name Ana Paula Covarrubias Contreras. What sequence of deliberate choices allowed a visit to a home to end with a body in a cistern and an infant taken?
