Apparently, the two suspects charged with robbing and killing Zengotita-Torres were hired by a woman named Ishnar Lopez Ramos, who allegedly wanted to murder a woman involved with the same man as she was, police said.
Investigators believe Zengotita-Torres, the married mother of a 14-year-old boy, was kidnapped and killed instead of the intended victim.
The target worked at the same store as Zengotita-Torres, and she reportedly bore a close resemblance to her.
The sheriff's office says the "murder-for-hire" became a case of "mistaken identity" and that the victim was not the intended target.
Sheriff Gibson said, "However, the suspects continued with their plan of murder, and tied the victim with the zip ties and then her head in duct tape and garbage bags".
