Boxer FĂ©lix Verdejo charged with killing pregnant woman whose body was found in a lagoon
Thursday was the last time Keishla RodrĂguezâs mother spoke to her daughter on the phone. RodrĂguez was nearly two months pregnant and about to show her pregnancy test results to FĂ©lix Verdejo SĂĄnchez, a former Olympic boxer from Puerto Rico.
âI told her, 'Chica, be careful,â Keila Ortiz Rivera told El Nuevo DĂa.
RodrĂguez, 27, did not show up to work that day. Two days later, her lifeless body was found in a lagoon in San Juan.
On Sunday, Verdejo, 27, turned himself in to the FBI to face charges that he kidnapped and killed RodrĂguez. The authorities say the boxer punched RodrĂguez and that she was injected with a syringe full of unknown âsubstancesâ before her death, and then thrown off a bridge.
Verdejo did not immediately respond to a message from The Washington Post late Sunday. Court records do not list an attorney representing him as of early Monday.
RodrĂguezâs killing has sparked protests in Puerto Rico and an avalanche of social media posts denouncing violence against women, which has been so rampant on the island that in January, Gov. Pedro Pierluisi declared a state of emergency over the issue. Last year, 60 people were killed because of their gender, according to the Observatory of Gender Equality of Puerto Rico.
RodrĂguezâs death also came days after the body of another woman was found partially burned. The victim, Andrea Ruiz Costas, had filed a gender violence complaint against her partner in March, but a judge dismissed the case, local media reported. Her partner has since been charged with murder.
Verdejo, who is married, had kept in touch with RodrĂguez since they met in middle school, her parents told local media. She worked at a pet grooming business and owned two cats and two dogs, Ortiz Rivera told El Nuevo DĂa. She was so passionate about animals that whenever she was not at work, she could usually be found rescuing and leaving food for stray animals.
Verdejo rose to fame in 2012 when he represented Puerto Rico at the London Olympics and then became a professional boxer in the lightweight division. In 2016, he suffered injuries in a motorcycle accident that left him hospitalized and paused his career. According to Top Rank, a boxing promotion company based in Las Vegas that listed Verdejo as one of its fighters, his boxing record is 27-2, with 17 knockouts. A representative with Top Rank did not immediately respond to a message from The Post late on Sunday.
Ortiz Rivera had a reason to worry when around 7 a. m. on Thursday, her daughter shared she was meeting Verdejo to discuss her pregnancy, she said.
