California To Battle Arizona In Boulder Dam Suit
Arman Baltares, 24, a San Fernando truck driver, confessed to fatally harming five Alvarez-Garcia family members in a brutal assault and burying them in Pacoima Canyon.

Dolores Guichapa,Baltares’s alleged sweetheart, was named a material witness as authorities linked the case to a broader motive over money and a destroyed relationship.
