Supt. Johnson said Desiree admitted to helping her mother strangle the pregnant teen with a coaxial cable. Both the alleged murder weapon (the cable) and Ochoa-Lopez’s body were found in a garbage can on Figueroa’s property, he stated at the news conference.

A police spokesperson also said authorities are still searching the Figueroas’ home and have uncovered “remnants of blood” on carpets, in hallways and on the bathroom floor.
