Esmeralda Gonzalez, who was 24 years old at the time, was the individual whose body was recovered in the desert of Las Vegas, imprisoned in a structure constructed of concrete and wood, according to the records that were presented in the court. According to the authorities, Gonzalez is the individual whose body was discovered, and they believe that Gonzalez is the identification of the person. Pamela Weckerly, the Chief Deputy District Attorney, stated in court records that were obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Wednesday that Christopher Prestipino, 45, took amazing pains to conceal the body of the woman after he had murdered her and injected her with pool cleaner. Those documents that were submitted to the court contained this information.
The materials were successfully acquired by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which was the publication that obtained them. The Clark County Coroner’s office has found that the manner of death and the cause of death of Esmeralda Gonzalez, who was 24 years old, are “undetermined.” The circumstances surrounding Gonzalez’s passing are inexplicable at this time. In the time since the inquiry was initiated, it has not been determined if the death was the result of a homicide, a suicide, or an accident. As a result of the investigation into her death, it has been determined that three people have been taken into custody.
In accordance with the allegations that have been presented by the prosecution, Cassandra Bascones, who is also known by the names Cassandra Garrett, Cassandra Tran, and Nikki Hart, has been identified as an additional suspect in the murder. Bascones is one of the individuals thought to be participating in the investigation, according to the findings of the investigation, which have been determined.
The authorities asserted that she had not been apprehended as of Wednesday, despite the fact that they continue to have a strong suspicion that she was involved in the criminal activities. In spite of the fact that they persistently carry out their operations in this manner, this is the situation. In the written statement that was submitted by the prosecutor, it was discovered that “Prestipino rented a U-Haul, and the body of the victim was dumped in the desert.
When Prestipino and Garrett learned that they had neglected to bring the U-Haul dolly that they had leased to the location of the body disposal, they flew into a state of panic. Gonzalez, who worked in the adult entertainment industry and had more than 300,000 followers on Instagram, was around one tenth of a mile away from Prestipino. Prestipino was approximately that distance away. Gonzalez was located in close proximity to Prestipino. According to estimations, Prestipino was positioned roughly that distance away.
Gonzalez established his home in the Prestipino neighborhood over the course of his early life. The lights inside her house were still on and the front door was unlocked when her brother filed a missing person report on May 31. After not seeing her for a week, he made the observation that the lights were still on inside her house on that particular day.
