The murder suspect is the son of a Fire Captain with the Los Angeles County Fire Department in the City where the murder occurred.

LOS ANGELES, May 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Moses Castillo Investigations -- A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for June 3, 2025, at Los Angeles Superior Court, 210 W. Temple Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012, Division 37, regarding the case of Andrea Vazquez, a 19-year-old woman tragically kidnapped and murdered in Whittier, California.

The suspect, Gabriel Sean Esparza, faces multiple charges, including attempted murder, kidnapping, and assault with a deadly weapon. Authorities believe the crime was a random act of violence, with no prior connection between Vazquez and the suspect.

Her family continues to advocate for justice, urging the community to support them during this difficult time.

The hearing will take place at 210 W. Temple Street, Los Angeles, and is expected to address key legal proceedings in the case.
