LAS VEGAS, NV – The families of two women, one murdered in Las Vegas and the other in Mexico, are grappling with the possibility that the accused killer, Oswaldo Perez Sanchez, might evade justice. Perez Sanchez, currently facing legal challenges in Mexico, is accused of murdering his girlfriend, Tabitha Tozzi, in April 2023 and another woman, Vivian Curly, two years later in Culiacan, Mexico.
The arrest of Perez Sanchez has not brought solace to the families, who fear he might be released without facing the full extent of the law. Concerns are mounting over the handling of the case in Mexico, particularly after reports that the judge overlooked crucial evidence, including police reports and witness testimonies.
Tozzi’s mother, devastated by the loss, believes her daughter’s decision to leave Perez Sanchez led to the tragic event. She remains determined to ensure her daughter’s case does not become a cold case, emphasizing the daily struggle for justice.
Vivian Curly’s sister, Alma, expressed similar anguish, worried about the lack of communication from their initial attorneys. This uncertainty has led to suspicions about the integrity of the legal process in Mexico, prompting the family to seek new legal representation.
Prosecutors in Mexico have filed an appeal against the judge’s ruling, which they claim ignored evidence of Perez Sanchez using a fake ID to elude authorities. Alma voiced her concerns, questioning why the judicial system appears to favor the accused.
Both families are advocating for Perez Sanchez’s extradition to the United States or his transfer to a maximum-security prison. They feel unprotected by the current legal proceedings and fear for their safety and justice for their loved ones.
The complexities of international extradition processes are being examined by local authorities. Conversations between the Clark County District Attorney and Mexican prosecutors are ongoing to determine the feasibility of extraditing Perez Sanchez to face charges in the U.S.
As the families continue their quest for justice, they remain hopeful that cooperation between the two countries will lead to a resolution, ensuring that Perez Sanchez is held accountable for his alleged crimes.
