The San Antonio Police Department released a video of two suspects in the shooting murders of pregnant girl Savanah Nicole Soto and her boyfriend, Matthew Guerra. Soto, 18, and Guerra, 22, were reported missing and found dead in Guerra’s car on Tuesday. This unfortunate finding came a day before Soto, a nine-month-pregnant woman, was scheduled for induction.
Police Identify Bodies of Guerra and Soto, Release Footage of Vehicles Near Crime Scene
The medical examiner’s office identified Guerra and Soto’s gunshot-wounded bodies. Police Chief Bill McManus said the leaked footage, shot near the bodies, shows a dark Chevy Silverado with a bed cover and Guerra’s Kia Optima.
McManus disclosed during a Thursday briefing that the footage was taken near where the remains were found a few days earlier. Police suspect the victims were in the car for days before being located. The footage suggests Guerra’s Optima driver used something to wipe down the car’s side, but it’s not definite.
McManus stressed that the Optima driver is neither Guerra nor Soto and that it is unclear if the two people in the video are related to the victims. The authorities believe Guerra and Soto were killed elsewhere and brought here. Whether they were alive when the footage was taken is unknown.
