**Stay tuned until the very end for True Crime Lab's very first criminal parody. A parody so funny ... it's criminal.**
When Facebook launched their pages and groups function, it was also meant to bring people with something in common together.
In the case of Marlen Ochoa-Lopez, a 19-year-old pregnant with her second child, a Facebook group called Help a Sister Out was her saving grace. Clarisa Figueroa, a mom offering baby clothes to Marlen, was her saving grace.
That blessing would turn into a nightmare.
It would become a nightmare for Marlen, her baby, her boyfriend, and her family and friends.
This is the case of the murder of Marlen Ochoa-Lopez, a 19-year-old mother who’s time was cut short in a vicious and brutal manner.
