David Pearce condenado por doble asesinato y violaciones

Un jurado de Los Ángeles declaró a David Pearce culpable de asesinato en primer grado por las muertes de Christy Giles y Hilda Marcela Cabrales. También fue condenado por agredir sexualmente a otras siete mujeres que testificaron en el juicio. Se declaró la anulación del juicio en el caso de su ex compañero de piso Brandt Osborn.

El 4 de febrero de 2025, tras dos días de deliberaciones, el jurado condenó a Pearce por los asesinatos ocurridos en noviembre de 2021. Los fiscales afirmaron que Pearce drogó a las mujeres con fentanilo y GHB en su apartamento antes de agredirlas sexualmente.

Veinte mujeres se presentaron durante la investigación. Siete de ellas testificaron sobre agresiones similares cometidas por Pearce desde 2010. Sus testimonios ayudaron a establecer un patrón que respaldó los cargos de asesinato grave.

Osborn fue acusado como cómplice después del hecho por ayudar a trasladar a las mujeres a hospitales. El jurado no logró un veredicto sobre esos cargos, lo que resultó en la anulación del juicio. Pearce enfrenta un mínimo de 148 años de prisión en su sentencia.

El uso de la función de ubicación compartida en los teléfonos móviles de las víctimas permitió a la policía identificar rápidamente la dirección de Pearce en West Olympic Boulevard. La madre de Christy instó a las familias a utilizar esta función por seguridad.
