Mercedes Rosales, 20, has been arrested for the murder of Raymond Orozco, 22, fatally stabbed outside a San Jose nightclub on July 20. Orozco tried to intervene in a fight involving the woman later accused of wielding the knife. Micaela Van, 18, was arrested as an accessory. The motive for the altercation remains unclear. Orozco's family describes him as a protector, seeking justice and witness cooperation. A GoFundMe for his funeral has not reached its goal of $26,000.
The San Jose Police Department announced Tuesday that they had arrested 20-year-old Mercedes Rosales on suspicion of murder, believing that she was wielding the knife that killed Orozco.
Orozco's family described him as a protector and 'peacemaker' who was just trying to keep his friends safe.
Orozco's father, Roy Orozco, expressed a desire for justice, stating, 'We would like to get justice for him. We'd like the police to get the person who did this and get them what they deserve.'
