0:57
morning November 6th 2014
1:00
when a few hapless locals out on their
1:03
usual early walk stumbled upon something
1:05
they would wish never to see a portion
1:08
of a dismembered human body dimly lit by
1:10
the first rays of dawn they stopped
1:13
Hearts pounding in Terror hands
1:16
trembling as they reached for their
1:17
phones to call the
1:18
authorities soon Sirens wailed through
1:21
the crisp morning air policemen roped
1:24
off the area forensic teams began
1:26
photographing every inch of the grizzly
1:28
scene and everyone present shared fitful
1:30
glances laced with fear and revulsion no
1:33
one at that moment could quite
1:35
comprehend the depth of evil they were
1:37
about to uncover but that was only the
1:40
beginning from that day onward more body
1:43
parts surfaced in abandoned Lots
1:45
desolate Alleyways and forgotten corners

same unnerving Hallmark missing fingers
1:53
and teeth the police stunned by the
1:56
calculated effort to remove identifying
1:58
features realized ized they were dealing

polished manner Alejandra at first
2:37
glance appeared every bit the successful
2:40
professional she was a psychotherapist
2:42
well spoken articulate and thoroughly
2:45
ambitious but behind that disarmingly
2:47
charming smile lay a tangled web of
2:50
Secrets regrets and festering resentment
2:53
shaped in no small part by her unusual
2:55
life and the shadow cast by her father
2:58
Dr Alberto dent Alejandra's father was a
3:01
prominent psychiatrist revered in
3:04
scientific circles for his

3:30
High Society Gatherings and the best
3:33
possible training as she carved out her

professional path yet as we all know

sometimes a gilded upbringing can mask
3:40
deep fractures even in her youth
3:43
Alejandra yearned for Perfection and
3:45
power anyone who peered beneath that
3:48
polished veneer might have seen a young
3:50
woman haunted by an unspoken event what
3:53
was it the neighbors sometimes whispered
3:55
about a startling incident when
3:57
Alejandra had been a teenager though the
3:59
det details were always maddeningly
4:01
vague a fight with a close friend some
4:04
intentionally hushed Scandal that Dr
4:06
Dent used his influence to smooth over
4:09
no one knew the full story but local
4:12
rumors trickled through the neighborhood
4:13
Grapevine leaving behind an unsettling
4:16
sense that Alejandra's poised exterior
4:18
was too Flawless too staged Mexico
4:22
City's Amplified fear meanwhile the city
4:26
simmered with anxiety a wave of rumors
4:29
crashed over local communities was there
4:31
a serial killer at large why had The
4:33
Corpse's extremities been so carefully
4:36
mutilated what was the significance of
4:38
removing both the hands and the teeth
4:40
effectively erasing the victim's
4:42
identity as local media Outlets churned
4:45
out speculations the pressure mounted on
4:47
law enforcement additional patrols
4:50
combed through deserted alleys crime
4:52
Labs bustled with forensic analysts and
4:54
eager reporters camped outside the
4:56
police station day and night poised to
4:59
pounce on any new development Mexico
5:01
City with its thrumming nightlife its
5:04
bustling markets and its mix of Modern
5:06
Skyscrapers and historic buildings is a
5:09
place of striking contrasts rich in
5:11
culture but also Rife with Hidden
5:13
Shadows that spawn crime yet acts of
5:16
violence while not unheard of rarely
5:19
reach such a Grizzly extreme this was
5:22
Uncharted Territory for the city's
5:23
populace jolting them into a collective
5:26
state of alarm parents ushered their
5:28
children indoors before dark businesses
5:31
installed extra security cameras and
5:33
every unsolved missing person's case
5:36
from the last few months was reopened
5:37
and scrutinized who was Behind These
5:40
horrifying acts and how many potential
5:42
victims might still be out there these
5:45
troubling questions constantly swirled
5:47
through the city's psyche Alejandra's
5:49
life in the
5:51
spotlight you might ask where was
5:53
Alejandra in the midst of all this chaos
5:56
she was seemingly unperturbed seeing
5:58
clients as usual offering advice to
6:00
those grappling with anxiety and
6:01
depression the irony almost palpable she
6:05
had become a recognized figure in her
6:06
field praised by peers for her firm
6:09
grasp of psychotherapy patients found
6:12
her intelligent and empathetic drawn to
6:14
her soothing voice and unwavering
6:16
composure she was married to Alan
6:18
Carrera a Suave Mexican businessman and
6:21
to all appearances their life together
6:23
was stable in Lux at least on the
6:25
surface they owned a refined home in an
6:28
affluent residential District protected
6:30
by tall fences security guards and gated
6:33
entrances but listen carefully the
6:36
hushed voices of neighbors told a
6:37
different story they occasionally heard
6:40
heated arguments bursting through the
6:41
home's thin walls late at night the
6:44
clatter of objects thrown in Anger
6:46
sobbing that ended in Eerie silence
6:49
people living nearby tried to ignore
6:51
these ominous signs chalking them up to
6:53
normal marital spats yet it was enough
6:56
to raise eyebrows what was really
6:58
happening behind that that pristine
7:00
white facade why did Alejandra appear so
7:03
collected in public while her private
7:05
World cracked
7:07
apart a shocking connection
7:09
emerges time marched on and so did the
7:13
investigations the police had carefully
7:15
collected fragments of the remains
7:17
forensic experts painstakingly examined
7:20
each piece hoping for a breakthrough
7:22
then came that Urka moment a trace of a
7:25
distinctive scar on the Torso piece one
7:27
of the lead detectives corroborated this
7:29
with missing person databases to their
7:32
shock it matched a documented scar
7:34
belonging to none other than Alan
7:36
Carrera yes the same Allan who was
7:39
rumored to have vanished without a word
7:41
suddenly everything took a sharply
7:44
personal turn why was Allen's body
7:46
scattered across Mexico City like an
7:48
Unholy jigsaw puzzle did someone Harbor
7:51
such rage against him that they chose to
7:53
tear him apart limb by limb the
7:56
investigators reeling with confusion
7:58
turned their Focus to Alejandra by that
8:01
point they had begun analyzing local
8:04
CCTV footage from the days leading up to
8:06
and following Allen's recorded
8:09
disappearance the cameras near the
8:10
affluent residential area displayed a
8:12
timeline Allen's car entering the
8:15
driveway on the evening of November 4th
8:17
but never leaving again Alejandra's car
8:20
on the other hand made several late
8:22
night outings trunks suspiciously
8:25
weighed down each return trip was in the
8:27
small hours of morning her face hidden
8:30
beneath a baseball cap or large
8:32
sunglasses as if deliberately avoiding
8:34
cameras the house of Shadows armed with
8:37
a search warrant the police arrived at
8:39
Alejandra's Gates by this time rumors
8:42
were flying all over town some newspaper
8:45
headlines read therapist in shocking
8:47
twist and was wealthy businessman Alan
8:50
Carrera murdered by wife Alejandra
8:53
looking uncharacteristically flustered
8:55
offered minimal resistance as the
8:57
authorities swept through the spacious
8:59
house house meticulously checking behind
9:01
doors under furniture and in every
9:04
darkened Corner then in the basement
9:07
little more than a cluttered storage
9:09
space the forensics team found what they
9:11
had feared and half expected a faint but
9:14
undeniable blood stain spattering the
9:16
cold cement floor under the bright beam
9:19
of ultraviolet lights it glowed in
9:22
sickening Clarity tucked away in boxes
9:25
investigators discovered various items
9:27
hinting at a disturbingly staged cleanup
9:30
there were Rags soaked with cleaning
9:32
solvents some of Alejandra's clothing
9:34
bearing suspicious stains and most
9:37
damning notes about sedative dosages in
9:40
a locked cabinet police uncovered older
9:43
notes from Alejandra's personal journals
9:45
each page adding a new dimension to the
9:47
case lines about frustration with
9:50
Allen's controlling nature cryptic
9:52
references to an escape plan and
9:54
repeated mention of the final solution
9:58
as the basement lights flickered an
10:00
almost palpable sense of dread seeped
10:02
through the house Revelations enforced
10:05
confessions barely able to uphold her
10:08
composed facade any longer Alejandra was
10:10
taken in for questioning under the
10:12
unrelenting scrutiny of investigators
10:15
she first tried to feain shock I have no
10:18
idea what happened to him we'd been
10:20
having marital problems yes but murder
10:22
it's beyond imagination she trembled
10:25
visibly in the interrogation room tears
10:28
glimmering beneath the heart har
10:29
fluorescent lighting but the question
10:31
haunted the detectives were those tears
10:34
genuine fear or a carefully executed
10:37
performance days stretched into nights
10:39
as the evidence mounted wound patterns
10:42
on the body parts traces of a powerful
10:44
sedative in Allen's Remains the
10:46
testimonies from Neighbors about
10:48
screaming matches it all pointed to one
10:51
horrifying conclusion and as for the
10:53
missing teeth and fingers investigators
10:56
theorized that Alejandra or someone
10:58
working for her had removed them to
11:00
impede identification perhaps she had
11:03
counted on Allan's body never being
11:04
identified at all in a final twist once
11:08
detectiv started unraveling her phone
11:10
records and the suspicious Bank
11:11
transfers there was little room left for
11:14
doubt Echoes of a dark past yet the
11:17
deeper they dug the more they realized
11:20
that Alejandra's brutality wasn't an
11:22
isolated incident Whispers from her past
11:25
relationship surfaced like ghosts in the
11:27
night a former husband who had allegedly
11:30
fallen down the stairs but had
11:32
suspiciously consistent bruising and
11:33
hospital visits a jealous ex-boyfriend
11:36
who claimed Alejandra threatened him
11:38
with a knife during a heated argument
11:40
these old stories once drowned out by
11:43
her father's influence and hush money
11:45
now began to resurface with a vengeful
11:47
Clarity even more intriguing one of her
11:50
early patients once lodged a complaint
11:52
about inappropriate boundaries and
11:55
manipulative treatment methods the
11:57
complaint was dropped but now those
11:59
seeds of Suspicion planted so many years
12:02
ago took root in the investigator's
12:04
imaginations her father Dr Dent once the
12:07
Towering figure who could silence rumors
12:10
with a mere handshake rushed into action
12:12
frantically calling in favors from old
12:14
colleagues and prominent lawyers to
12:16
Shield his daughter did he know the
12:18
darkness that lurked in Alejandra's mind
12:21
or had he spent a lifetime ignoring the
12:23
warning signs perhaps he recognized too
12:26
late that her drive for Perfection and
12:28
fear of vulner ability were festering
12:30
into something monstrous a media frenzy
12:33
the trial that followed became a
12:35
sensation a maab circus of speculation
12:38
legal maneuvering and lurid headlines
12:41
live news segments splashed Alejandra's
12:43
face across screens Nationwide
12:46
interviews with her College professors
12:48
old friends and even distant relatives
12:50
painted conflicting portraits some
12:52
described her as a caring professional
12:54
ever supportive and kind others depicted
12:57
her as cold calcula and scarily detached
13:01
online forums erupted in debates about
13:03
mental illness the psychological
13:05
pressures of high achievement and the
13:07
hidden abuses that can gnaw at
13:10
relationships was Alejandra truly a
13:12
monster or could there be a moment of
13:14
truth in her claims of self-defense the
13:17
court sessions were packed journalists
13:20
perched at the edges of their seats
13:21
scribbling down testimony family and
13:24
friends on both sides watched in growing
13:26
horror as graphic details about Al Al 's
13:29
remains were revealed the defense tried
13:32
rallying around an argument of marital
13:34
abuse insisting that Allen had been
13:36
controlling that Alejandra had snapped
13:38
in a desperate Act of
13:40
self-preservation but the prosecution
13:42
swiftly dismantled each claim
13:45
brandishing evidence of her premeditated
13:47
planning the sedatives she purchased
13:49
without a prescription and her
13:51
suspicious midnight trips disposing of
13:53
body parts each Revelation was more
13:55
stomach churning than the last into the
13:58
mind of a killer
13:59
what possessed Alejandra to commit an
14:01
act of savagery so heinous had she
14:04
learned from her father's scholarly
14:06
texts on human psychology precisely how
14:08
to manipulate the system or was she one
14:11
of those rare deeply Disturbed
14:13
individuals who hide behind a mask of
14:15
normaly until the pressure triggers
14:17
catastrophic violence the psychiatrists
14:20
assigned to evaluate her glimpsed a
14:22
personality both brilliant and Disturbed
14:25
a woman who thrived on admiration yet
14:28
couldn't handle anything threat to her
14:29
carefully controlled Life One slip in
14:32
her perfect facade one
14:35
betrayal and the rage boiled over as
14:38
each mental health expert took the stand
14:41
they analyzed her with clinical
14:42
Detachment but always returned to the
14:45
same haunting notion beneath her
14:47
intelligence and composure lay a
14:49
capacity for cruelty that defied
14:51
rational explanation she had everything
14:55
money status a husband a respected
14:58
career
14:59
and she threw it all away in a singular
15:01
act That Shook an entire Metropolis to
15:04
its core the final
15:07
judgment after weeks of testimony that
15:09
dragged on longer than anyone expected
15:12
the judge and jury visibly shaken by the
15:14
horrifying evidence delivered their
15:16
verdict guilty guilty of first-degree
15:19
murder despite the Frantic leaks about
15:22
potential plea Bargains and Deals
15:24
Alejandra's attempt at a self-defense
15:26
argument was instantly drowned out by
15:28
the avalanch of proof and so it was she
15:31
sat there her once pristine demeanor
15:34
shattered as the gavel slammed down with
15:37
finality life in prison no chance of
15:40
parole a hush fell over the courtroom
15:43
broken only by the muted sobs of
15:45
onlookers Dr Alberto Dent tears
15:48
glistening in his weary eyes struggled
15:50
to steal himself for the reality that
15:52
his beloved daughter was now a convicted
15:54
murderer whatever Illusions he had clung
15:57
to of her innocence or the possibility
15:59
of a flawed investigation vanished the
16:03
shock rippled beyond that courtroom the
16:06
family name once impeccable lay in Ruins
16:09
tarnished Forever by the grotesque
16:11
details that preceded this conviction
16:14
some claimed the verdict was a
16:16
cautionary tale about the pitfalls of
16:18
vanity unchecked ambition and
16:21
deep-seated psychological scars left to
16:23
Fester to Mexico City it became another
16:26
crime statistic albeit an un forgettable
16:29
one that would keep people talking for
16:31
years to come Reflections on a tragedy
16:34
with Alejandra in prison journalists
16:36
took a final pass at summarizing The
16:39
Saga that had enthralled the public they
16:41
asked time and again wasn't there a
16:43
moment along that dark path where she
16:45
could have turned back a therapy session
16:48
where she almost confessed her mounting
16:50
rage a phone call to a friend that
16:52
hinted at the stress she carried could
16:55
Allen's Grizzly death have been avoided
16:57
if only someone any one had taken the
16:59
warning signs more seriously ultimately
17:03
such questions bring faint Solace to the
17:05
families and friends Left Behind picking
17:07
up the broken pieces of their lives in
17:10
the hush that followed the verdict
17:12
Mexico City tried to return to normal
17:15
the swirling rumors calmed though fear
17:17
and paranoia lingered in some Corners
17:20
neighbors resumed polite small talk no
17:23
longer eavesdropping for fights or
17:24
shouts that might indicate hidden
17:26
Terrors the Nightly News moved Dawn to
17:29
Other Stories political scandals
17:31
celebrity breakups new developments in
17:33
foreign affairs yet behind the city's
17:36
teeming Rush The Echoes of Alejandra's
17:39
case still live on like a half her
17:41
whisper in a darkened Alleyway a
17:43
reminder that any life even one that
17:45
appears perfect can Harbor unimaginable
17:48
nightmares and so we arrive at the end
17:51
of this lengthy unsettling Journey left
17:53
to wonder if people had demanded
17:56
accountability years before when those
17:58
earlier hints of Alejandra's violent
18:00
inclinations first emerged would we be
18:03
telling a different story tonight
18:05
perhaps but in reality events unfolded
18:09
as they did culminating in a tragedy
18:11
that defied belief Alejandra lafuente
18:14
once the picture of sophistication
18:16
Brilliance and promise will spend the
18:18
remainder of her days in a grim cell far
18:21
from the luxury and Status she once
18:23
coveted her father's reputation
18:25
irreparably tarnished Fades into quiet
18:27
shame and Mexico City marks another
18:30
Savage moment in its storied and
18:32
tumultuous history thank you for
18:34
accompanying me on this Grim Odyssey
18:37
though unsettling these cautionary tales
18:39
remind us to keep our eyes open to
18:42
question the images of perfection that
18:44
others project and to realize that
18:46
sometimes the worst monsters Walk Among
18:48
Us in plain sight stay safe out there
18:52
until the next chilling chapter farewell
