Valeria Márquez TikTok Murder: What Really Happened?

The Truth Behind This Influencers Murder Is Even Darker Than You Think

On May 14th, 23-year-old influencer and beauty queen Valeria Márquez was murdered live on TikTok while chatting with fans from her salon in Zapopan, Mexico. She was waiting for a mysterious gift that never arrived… and minutes later, she was gunned down on camera. Her fans — and now, the world — are demanding answers.

In this video, we break down everything we know so far about Valeria’s shocking death — from the suspicious behavior of her close friend Vivian De la Torre, to the involvement of cartel figure “El Doble R,” a man described as one of Mexico’s most violent criminals. Viewers watched in real time as Valeria was shot multiple times while holding a stuffed pig she had just received as a gift… and the person who picked up the phone to end the stream? Her friend, Vivian.

Was this a cartel hit? Was she set up? And why are so many young women being murdered in Mexico — with barely any consequences?

We look into the rising trend of femicides in Jalisco (where this was the eighth such case this month), and the horrifying statistic that only 3% of homicides in Mexico lead to convictions. We also examine the deeper systemic issues — police corruption, cartel control, and the culture of silence around gender-based violence.

From the chilling final livestream to the emerging theories around Vivian’s role, and the haunting details of Valeria’s relationship with the suspected cartel leader, this case has all the makings of a tragedy that could’ve been prevented — but probably won’t be solved.

And this isn’t the first time. We also revisit the infamous 2022 case of Debanhi Escobar — another young Mexican woman who disappeared under suspicious circumstances, only to be found dead in a motel cistern weeks later. The parallels between their cases raise serious questions about justice, safety, and who’s really in control.

If you care about justice, press play — and let’s talk about the story Mexico is trying to forget.
