Jossimar Cabrera, 36, was charged with one count of murder and faces an extradition arrest warrant after investigators say he fled to Peru with his three young sons. Remains of 33-year-old Sheylla Cabrera were found in Angeles National Forest wrapped in material similar to that seen in surveillance footage. A missing-persons report was filed on Aug. 12, and video captured a person identified as Jossimar allegedly dragging a large object from the couple's Lancaster Boulevard apartment the next day. Homicide investigators opened a probe, the children were entered into the missing-persons system, and the county medical examiner is determining cause of death.
A husband accused of killing his wife then dumping her body in the Angelges National Forest before fleeing the country with their children has been offically charged with murder, paving the way for his arrest and possible extradition back to the United States. Here's what we know so far: What do we know about the investigation? Jossimar Cabrera, 36, who investigators believe fled to Peru after the death of his wife, Sheylla Cabrera, was charged with one count of murder, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney's office.
On Aug. 12, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Lancaster Station took down a missing persons report on Sheylla, officials said. The next day, they found video surveillance of Jossimar Cabrera allegedly dragging a large object from the apartment complex in the 500 block of Lancaster Boulevard, where the couple lived with their three young sons. Officials suspected foul play and homicide investigators began conducting their investigation, according to authorities. The couple's three children were also entered into the missing persons system.
On Aug. 16 in the Angeles National Forest, authorities found Sheylla's body wrapped in material that appeared similar to what was seen being dragged in the video footage, though the department didn't specify what the material was. A cause of death has not yet been established and is being investigated by the L.A. County medical examiner's office, authorities said.
