Woman accused of murdering pregnant teen, taking unborn baby from womb wants arrest thrown out

CHICAGO — The woman accused of murdering a pregnant teen and cutting out an unborn baby from the teen’s body wants her arrest thrown out.(snip)

Clarisa Figueroa, and her daughter Desiree Figueroa, were charged with the deaths of 19-year-old Ochoa-Lopez and her son. Figueroa’s boyfriend, Piotr Bobak, was charged with concealing a homicide.

Ochoa-Lopez was nine months pregnant when she went to Figueroa’s home under the impression that she was getting free baby items after the two connected in a Facebook group.

The teen was initially reported missing on April 23, 2019 — less than two weeks before her due date. Police said a cord was used to strangle her to death. Her baby boy, Yovanny Jadiel Lopez, was cut from her womb with a butcher’s knife after she was killed.

The baby suffered brain injuries after the incident and was hospitalized, but later died.

On Monday, Figueroa’s attorney filed a motion to void her arrest and suppress certain evidence gathered during a search of the crime scene. It’s unclear what evidence the attorney wants thrown out.

At the time of her initial arrest and first court appearance, prosecutors said Desiree Figueroa distracted the victim with a photo album of her late brother while Clarisa Figueroa strangled Ochoa-Lopez.

Prosecutors said she managed to get her fingers under the cord around her neck and Clarisa Figueroa yelled at her daughter, “You’re not doing your f—ing job!”

Desiree Figueroa then pried Ochoa-Lopez’s fingers from the cord while Clarisa Figueroa continued to strangle the teen, prosecutors said.

Hours later that same day, Clarisa Figueroa came running out of the home claiming she had just given birth to a baby boy and that he wasn’t breathing.

No. And some years ago another woman committed the same crime, got a death sentence, and her sentence was commuted to life once capital punishment was banned.

From a related article linked in your link:

Nearly a month before the murder of 19-year-old Marlen Ochoa-Lopez, Clarisa Figueroa allegedly told her daughter, “I need help killing a pregnant woman and taking a baby.” That’s just one of the horrific details that prosecutors revealed in bond court Friday.

Me:

It’s not clear why the mother “needed” a baby.

Other women have had this same sort of demonic ruse pulled on them with an offer of free baby stuff. I saw a story a few weeks ago on You Tube of an I Survived episode. What the victim went through was horrific, but she and her baby lived. Very awful that this woman and her baby did not make it. Pregnant women should be very careful and never go alone to these things. Take an armed, burly man with you. No kidding. Seems one can not be too careful these days.

Here’s the I Survived episode if anyone is
interested:

I’m not sure what case that was where the person’s sentence was commuted but Lisa Marie Montgomery was executed in 2021 for the motor of Bobbie Jo Stinnett. Thank goodness.

Another one I remember. This one ended with the pregnant woman actually killing the attacker:

The writing on this article is garbage.

WHICH woman wants her arrest thrown out, the mother or the daughter?!

No, the one I mentioned was in Illinois. Justice was done in the case of Montgomery.

They say the eyes are the window to the soul. I see 3 sets of dead eyes in that picture. There’s nothing there.
