The slain man’s wife told police he called her to say he was going to spend the night at the home of his boss, Banos’, and go to work from there, but when he called, he sounded injured. When he didn’t pick up the phone again, she called Banos to question where he was.
Carrizales allegedly called Ashley Gomez telling that she needed to pick up her husband’s last paycheck, which appeared suspicious to the victim’s wife because they use direct deposit. Carrizales also told Gomez that she needed to pick up her husband’s truck.
Gomez said she had planned to get the truck on Monday after the couple said they would leave his keys inside. Officers found the keys at the crime scene.
