An accused has been arrested for the murder of a young mother. She was strangled with her pants and raped before she was dumped in a field.
On Sunday, a group made up of kids playing in Ranelagh in Buenos Aires, Argentina, discovered the body of Brisa Formoso Sobrado (19).
After she did not return from Friday night’s outing, her mother had reported her as missing 24 hours before.
Brisa, a mother to a small child, met Hugo Ivan Morales (23) at a Guillermo Enrique Hudson party.
According to police, the victim was at the event along her cousin. She said Brisa left around 5:30 am and returned with Morales. They had never met.
Locals launched an investigation and accused police of not treating the case seriously. They then erupted into anger after a group of kids discovered her corpse in an overgrown field. MinutoUno, a local media outlet, reported that the body had been found by children.
According to the family of the victim’s mother, they also claim that police fired rubber bullets at them when they attempted to identify the body.

Investigators quickly tracked Morales from the neighboring village of Platanos down after the horrifying discovery. He was discovered with numerous scratches to his arm.
They may have been caused possibly by Brisa, as Brisa defended herself against the attack.
According to Infobae, Morales could not account for the injuries.
MinutoUno reported that he had also washed his clothing the night before the incident. However, forensics could detect bloodstains.

The home was searched by police.
Brisa’s body currently has an autopsy. Preliminary results indicate that Brisa was sexually assaulted while she tried to resist her attacker.
Morales may spend life behind bars if found guilty.
