From the live press conference on CBS Baltimore:

The investigation is still ongoing and they cannot discuss everything.

Three weeks ago, on Rachel's birthday, investigators uncovered a lead. Related to DNA evidence, it allowed them to put a name to his image from Los Angeles. They still didn't know where he was at that time. At some point, they received information on his possible location in Tulsa and then LE obtained an arrest warrant yesterday afternoon. They were actively looking for him when he was arrested at a storefront for trespassing and identified in the course of that encounter with police.

The family was updated yesterday that his identity was known but asked to keep it a secret.

Five hours after meeting with family, Tulsa OK police located and arrested Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez. The suspect is a native of El Salvador who crossed the border in 2023.

This suspect fled to the US illegally after murdering a young woman in El Salvador a month earlier.

A 9 year old girl and her mother were attacked in Los Angeles in the case linked to this one.

This case would not be solved without the teamwork from local, state, and federal partners. They also worked with El Salvadoran authorities.

Rachel's mother will deliver some remarks.

Presser Notes:

3 weeks ago, on Rachel's birthday, investigators uncovered a lead that led to this day. DNA evidence allowed investigators to put a name to the suspect in the LA video. Tracked him to Tulsa. Obtained arrest warrant yesterday afternoon. They tipped off the family prior to his arrest, but told them to keep it quiet.

Suspect is a 23 year old El Salvador citizen who illegally crossed in February of 2023. Rachel may not have been first victim. This monster also murdered a woman in El Salvador before he entered the US.

Attacked 9 year old girl and mother in home invasion in March in LA, which provided a link between the cases.

Calling upon the President and Congress to fix immigration policies. Second time in two years that an innocent woman in the county has lost their life to a killer from El Salvador with ties to criminal gangs.

He came here to escape his crime in El Salvador, not make a better life. It should not have been allowed to happen.

Sherriff said, there will never be closure. I agree. Personally I do not like that word. I prefer resolution.

Thank God they have caught this guy. Seriously dangerous and I doubt he would have stopped there. Hopefully justice is to come for all his victims.
