Murillo Ordered to Lakes Crossing
Ofelia Murillo

Ofelia Murillo appeared before Judge Benjamin Trotter on Friday in New River Township Justice Court. A competency evaluation for Murillo was ordered, which could take several weeks to complete. All preliminary hearings were vacated pending the outcome of the evaluation, which is to take place at Lakes Crossing forensic hospital in Sparks.

During her arraignment in November, Chief Deputy District Attorney Lane Mills, stated that Murillo conspired with Fabian Abello to lie in wait for her ex-husband Caesar Alvarado-Jauregui, to kill him. Alvarado-Jauregui was shot several times with a 9mm handgun on September 23rd.

Murillo is charged with Open Murder (First Degree Murder), Use of Deadly Weapon in the Commission of a Crime, being a Principal to the Commission of a Felony by direct or indirect involvement, Criminal Conspiracy, and Destroying Evidence. Her bail is currently set at $1 million.

Comment author: Jeff goings Comment text: September 11, article Civics 101 I would like to commend Rachael Dahl and the Fallon post for their article. Civics 101. This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus. God Bless you all during this tragedy.
