Illegal immigrant carries the body of a woman he killed in New York just as a patrol car drives by: see video

A shocking video appears to show a patrol car driving by at the exact moment an illegal immigrant from Ecuador carries the limp body of a woman out of an Airbnb in Syracuse, New York. Jhon Moises Chacaguasay-Ilbis, 21, is accused of killing 21-year-old Joselyn Jhoana Toaquiza on her birthday.

Chacaguasay-Ilbis arranged to meet the victim at his Airbnb on June 18. After suffocating the woman, he allegedly buried her body in a shallow grave in a park in upstate New York, authorities claimed, according to the New York Post.

The video that Collin Rugg shared with X shows Chacaguasay-Ilbis dragging Toaquiza’s body out of the house and carrying it on his back. At that exact moment, a patrol car drove by, not realizing what was happening.

How did the victim and the suspect know each other?

The couple are believed to have attended elementary school together in Ecuador. In January 2023, Chacaguasay-Ilbis illegally crossed the border in El Paso, Texas. He was released into the United States because there was not enough space to detain him.

Toaquiza, on the other hand, illegally crossed the southern border into Lukeville, Arizona, in June 2023, according to Department of Homeland Security sources. She was initially in Border Patrol custody, where she confessed that she was afraid to return to Ecuador because she was threatened by a former partner. However, it is unclear if Chacaguasay-Ilbis was the person she was trying to escape. Eventually, Toaquiza was released with a future court date, after which she said she would go to Chicago.

Surveillance video captured Chacaguasay-Ilbis and Toaquiza entering the Airbnb. Chacaguasay-Ilbis turned himself in after Toaquiza’s murder. He was charged with first-degree murder and concealment of a human corpse. He later appeared in Syracuse Municipal Court and said he could not remember anything related to the alleged murder because he was too drunk.
