A man from Chicago who was accused of killing three workers in a dispute in November 2023 about a concrete payment of a concrete job is in custody after the Mexican authorities delivered him to Chicago last week, officials said. Judge Shauna Boliker ordered the 32-year-old Vilmer Alcaraz to hold pending trial on three counts of murder in the first degree.
In the afternoon of November 10, 2023, the Chicago police responded to a Shotpotter-Alert and 911 calls and discovered three men-Fernando Najero-Patino, 28, Carlos Lopez-Orozco, 38 and Juan Marrufo-Romero, 36-SLINGDE in the 8300 block of the South Clave in the 8300 Genclave Block of the south of the 8300 block of the south of the 8300 block of the south of the 8300 block of the 8300-block of the south of the wounds of the 8300.
According to an offer from the Cook County State law firm, the victims were hired to do concrete work at the house of Alcaraz’s sister and the ownership of her neighbor. A notebook that stated the address of Alcaraz’s sister to the crew leader, in addition to a figure of approximately $ 2,300, the Procferer mentioned.
Surveillance video recorded Alcaraz at his sister’s house in a van from his job in a senior care center three hours before the shooting. One of the workers then sent two SMS messages to a telephone that was registered with Alcaraz and exchanged telephone conversations with the number.
“Good afternoon, can you pay for the rest of the money?” Asked a text, according to The Profer. Another read: “Do you answer or are you going to pay the money or not?”
Video reportedly shows Alcaraz that his sister’s house leaves about 10 minutes before the murders, pulls his pork hood up and runs through an alley. Extra images followed him by the neighborhood to the car of the victims, where he approached the driver’s side, briefly spoke to the driver, pulled a gun from his right bag and shot in the vehicle, alleged public prosecutors.
Further video showed Alcaraz, dressed in the same clothing as the shooter, who returned to his sister’s house at 4.34 pm about a minute after the shooting. Five minutes later he left in an SUV “presumably driven by his neighbor,” said the provider.

A second telephone registered to Alcaraz placed him in both his workplace and the murder scene during the shooting, claimed public prosecutors.
Alcaraz, who held the identification (foid) card of a valid firearm owner and had three guns, took a pre -planned flight to Mexico the day after the shooting. None of his firearms corresponded to the caliber of the murder weapon, nor that ownership of his neighbor, who held a foid card and a hidden carrier permit, according to the designated.
Judicial information shows that on January 30, 2024, a judge issued an arrest warrant for Alcaraz and the American border patrol agents informed the Chicago police on the same day that Alcaraz had previously introduced the US via a border crossing in Texas. Exactly when Alcaraz returned to Mexico is not clear.
During his extradition from Mexico last week, Alcaraz abandoned his Miranda rights and made recordings with regard to the murders, although details of his statements were not announced, stated the described description.
The neighbor, who is not accused of a crime, was not cooperating with the investigation, did not spoke to CPD detectors and obtained a lawyer, according to the profer.
