BENSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The Tucson Police Department recently charged 57-year-old Victor Lawrence Farber in connection to the death of 21-year-old Alexis Ochotorena.
Police say they found Ochotorena's body squished into a suitcase inside of an overturned shopping cart back in September 2022 at 314 E. Benson Hwy near South 4th Avenue.
This led them to initially charge Farber with concealment of a dead body.
However, once the second witness told officers what she knew, which matched the autopsy findings, Farber had another charge tackled on.
Court documents reveal he is scheduled to appear before a judge on the new murder charge at the beginning of February.
