Who was Idania Campos?
Idania Campos was a 21-year-old Houston native. She has been in the news because her boyfriend, Ariel Cruz, was recently arrested for allegedly killing her.
Her full name is Idania María Campos Muñoz. As described in the biography section of her GoFundMe page, Idania was a remarkable and driven person who fervently followed her dreams and had an unbreakable love for her family. She was a 21-year-old committed college student with a great work ethic.
How and why was she killed?
Tragically, Idania Campos’ body was discovered dead in the car’s trunk by her relatives on Tuesday night. When Campos failed to appear at school that day, her family and ex-boyfriend became concerned and started looking for her.
They found an abandoned automobile connected to Campos via their investigation, but she wasn’t inside. After informing the authorities, she was reported missing.
In a disturbing turn of events, a family member found Idania Campos in the trunk of the vehicle. When emergency personnel came, they declared her dead on the spot.
Following an investigation that turned up evidence of facial injuries, Ariel Cruz, Campos’s ex-boyfriend, who had been with the family throughout the search, was soon taken into custody. Despite being considered a “good friend” by the family, Cruz and Campos had a prior relationship.
Cruz is said to have admitted to the crime as a result of Idania Campos breaking up with him. He was placed under arrest, and on Thursday, he was supposed to appear in court.
