Found Deceased TX - Savanah Soto, 18, Leon Valley, 22 December 2023

[Joe Friday]

Rear window isn't shot out. I can see a reflection in the glass on the open drivers door window, so that window must be still intact.

What an angering case. Who takes their very pregnant girlfriend to be around dangerous people? She should have been at home resting and waiting for the birth. (IMO - this is what it currently sounds like happened.)

From the pictures posted up thread, it doesn't appear the passenger side windows are broken from a possible bullet from a gun shot made outside of the vehicle. Can't see the drivers side and the rear window is covered with a sheet/blanket.

Strange if the shootings took place there, no one heard or reported gun shots that we have heard about. If someone had, the car with bodies should have been discovered before they were.

Someone knew the car was there and contacted her via Facebook, but didn't go investigate or check the car themselves??? I sure hope LE is interviewing that person.

Those apartments have been in the news alot. They even changed their name recently. When I saw the address and the name, I just said, "Oh, that place...."....It was in the news alot. In 2022, City Council put tenants up in motels.

Many tenants are Section 8. Lots of complaints about poor maintenance. They were known to rent to those with criminal records.

In Oct 2021, a suspect barricaded himself after shooting a women, then killed himself. He had been convicted of murder in 1996. In Nov 2021, there was a double homicide. In Mar 2021, there was a massive fire.

Is that not a bullet hole ?

Someone who obviously didn't care about her safety and well being as evidenced by his past with her.

Just as mysterious as to why LE could not access her apartment when she was declared missing.

Just as mysterious as to why LE could not access her apartment when she was declared missing.

Could it have been an issue of drugs being manufactured in the apartment? Would the evacuate adjacent apartments? Just my thoughts on why they couldn't access her apartment.

Is that not a bullet hole ?

That could be the reflection of a news helicopter circling overhead.

That window would shatter into little tiny pieces if shot. Car windows are made of safety glass. The window tint may hold it all together, but you would defiantly see the window was broken from the outside.

Good idea. However, in the first hours of the report of a missing pregnant 18 year old about to deliver a baby, you would think getting into her apartment would be of paramount importance, especially with the strong history of domestic violence.

Unless, LE already had CCTV footage of the two of them departing the apartment.

Perplexing, indeed.

SAPD says Savannah Soto and Matthew Guerra each had a gunshot wound

"dangerous work"
Right.
ETA: I never imagined.

I really want to know what his work was, surely it put them in danger by the sounds of that, but the perceived history of abuse, leads me to thinking murder/suicide, however why would he take her out of the apartment to do that in the car? a lot of questions and I agree with other members, baby died with mama

....There are pictures of him flashing cash etc...

Between the pictures of the investigator looking into the rear window of the vehicle and the rear windows being covered with sheets but not the front windows, the bodies must have been in the back seat. That a bit perplexing and doesn't suggest murder/suicide to me.

I'm leaning towards revenge killing or drug debt or deal gone wrong.

does look like the drivers side front is covered by sheet too, but that could be just to hold sheet.

....There are pictures of him flashing cash etc...

yes which leads me to criminal activity , and his mother referred to it as his work, like he had a NORMAL job.

odd "she is in bad shape"

 

[I am not Sherlock H.]

One wonders if perplexing might refer to a scenario where both found in the back seat with gunshot wounds? And no gun found? And perhaps a car wiped clean? MOO

Police reported late Wednesday morning that the pregnant woman and man each sustained a “gunshot wound.” It referred to both as victims.

The statement also mentioned that an unborn child was pronounced dead at the scene.

That eliminates the baby snatcher theory. And the murder/suicide theory.

Still leaning towards the gang/cartel drug murder or the retaliation murder theory.
