It's always exciting to catch the initial WHIFF, of a NEWLY discovered serial
killer case. That LOOKS like what we have, over in Florida, although this
enraged attacker does NOT seem very active, especially not recently.
In 1990, a male migrant farm worrker was shot to death, outside of a cheap
apartment complex. Police now say that they believe 44 or 45 year old Ignacio
Espinoza committed this murder, and have launched a NATIONWIDE manhunt for him.
They ALSO say they believe Ignacio is a SERIAL killer, who has committed
SIMILAR mnurders, ALWAYS targeting MALE migrant farm workers, in at least two
other states, AR and NC. A PATTERN exists between these unsolved murders,
LINKING them to a SINGLE attacker.
All the victims are DIRT POOR male migrant workers, there is NO indication
that the killer KNEW these workers on a personal level, and THEFT does not seem
to be a motive. The victims are fatally shot, apparently without warning,
doesn't sound as though any SEXUAL assault is committed upon the victims.
either. Definately a UNIQUE modus operandi, that this serial killer operates
under.
Ignacio is a POOR farmworker himself, and police think he might be going back
to work on the SAME farms, or at least in same area, year after year. That may
well make it EASIER for the pigs to locate & capture him. He was arrested in FL
on a FRAUD charge, in 1993, but lied about his name & was eventually freed.
Pigs are now trying to get America's Most Wanted to devote a segment to this
case. It SOUNDS as though Ignacio is NOT suspected of a TREMENDOUS number of
harvestings, but DEFINATELY of at least THREE murders, and perhaps as many as 5
or 6.
These migrant workers DO have some tactical advantages as far as avoiding
police capture, they are constantly DRIFTING, most of them have NO legitimate,
government issue ID, they get PAID in CASH, most often, so don't need bank
accounts, etc... So, Ignacio is NOT really in BAD shape, as long as he keeps
his tactical radar on alert, and regrains from going BACK over and over, to
work on the same farms.
You can view a photo shoeing the exterior of the CHEAP apartment complex
where the 1990 murder occured, over at:

As long as the ONLY victims Ignacio targets for harvesting are dirt poor
farm-migrant workers, I do NOT feel this case will receive much media attention
at all.
Stay Strong, Ignacio!
Take care, JOE

National search begins for possible serial killer
NBC2 News
• National search begins for possible serial killer
A nationwide manhunt is on for 45 year-old Ignacio Espinoza. He’s wanted for
questioning in a local murder from 1990, as well as murders in Arkansas and
North Carolina. The way the victims were murdered, plus their profiles show a
pattern, detectives say.
LEE COUNTY, Fla., June 17 – It’s a case police have been baffled over for
years. Now, Collier County detectives believe they’ve found their suspect.
Ignacio Espinoza, 44, has been wanted in Florida since 1990.
ESPINOZA HAS BEEN wanted in Collier County after he allegedly gunned
down a 20 year-old migrant farmworker outside an Immokalee apartment complex.
But just recently, a cold case detective found startling similarities
between this murder and others in the country. All the murders were male
migrant worker slain in cold blood for no apparent reason.
“The pattern of farmworkers is to frequent, the same area over and over
again,” said Deputy Tina Osceola, from the Collier County Sheriff’s Office.
There is a likelihood he could be in Collier County, we don’t know.”
“Realistically, this suspect could be anywhere from Florida, to Texas, to
North Carolina, or anywhere in between.”
Espinoza was last arrested in Okeechobee County on fraud charges back in
1993. He was let go because he was using an alias. Espinoza has a broken heart
and cross tattoo on his left forearm.
Investigators are now trying to get this case profiled on America’s Most
Wanted. They say that because Espinoza uses different names and social security
numbers, it may take national publicity to catch him.
