The FBI has now joined the investigation, which has focused on the young woman’s alleged pimp as well as an East Bay rapper who allegedly poured juice on the victim before she was killed.

The suspect and victim argued inside of a vehicle shortly before the shooting, according to police.

The suspect lived in a trailer on a U-Haul lot, where he allegedly did odd jobs as a mechanic.

One of the two girls called police for assistance from an area known for prostitution, reporting that she was being trafficked.

Police say the 47-year-old suspect pulled up to the victim outside of a local supermarket.

Thinking he was taking to a fellow predator, Steven Gomez allegedly admitted to sexual abuse of a young child and an infant, according to prosecutors.

The evidence paints a chilling picture of Miriam Patricia Avila’s final hours, from her alleged abduction to the Brentwood crash that killed her.

Just one minute before the shootout inside the after-hours club, Jarvis Toussaint pulled a balaclava mask over his face.

The 30-year-old man had been reported missing under mysterious circustances a day before his body turned up in a San Leandro garbage processing facility.

Dejuan Pickens, 36, testified that he killed one of the victims in self-defense and accidentally killed a woman in the process.
