A Year After Valeria Márquez’s Killing, Jalisco Prosecutors Cite Two Leading Lines of Inquiry

The update signals an active but sealed probe with no public resolution.

Overview

  • Jalisco officials said Thursday the investigation remains under seal and now centers on two more precise lines of inquiry.
  • Prosecutors declined to share possible motives or targets and said other hypotheses are still on the table.
  • The case file has grown to more than 10 volumes with over 100 actions, 45 interviews, 50 inspections, and 1,500 hours of video reviewed.
  • Valeria Márquez, 23, was shot during a live stream at her Blossom salon in Zapopan in May 2025 after a man posing as a delivery worker asked her name and fired two shots.
  • Earlier briefings reported no evidence of links to organized crime and noted delays caused by reluctance from some people close to her to provide information.
