Savanah Soto, a teenager, was found dead in San Antonio with her boyfriend. The horrific discovery was made a day after Christmas, and it was also revealed that Savanah was pregnant during the time of death. Upon investigation, cops arrested three people in connection to the death. While the father-son duo has been considered the main suspects in the case, Romanos is believed to have concealed evidence.

Christopher has been charged with capital murder, abuse of corpse, and alter/destroy/conceal human corpse. His dad, Ramon, has been charged with abuse of a corpse and alter/destroy/conceal human corpse. Their bond hearing was scheduled for Monday, February 12, 2024. This was when Soto's mum was taken into custody in the courthouse. Gloria Cordova was arrested in the courtroom on Monday in connection to an unrelated incident.

It has been revealed that Romanos is reportedly Christopher's stepmother, and she is charged with altering/destroying a corpse, abuse of a corpse, and tampering with evidence.

While talking about the murders, the medical examiner revealed that Savanah Soto's boyfriend reportedly died of a "contact gunshot wound to the head."


The victims reportedly went to Christopher Preciado's house to sell marijuana

Myrta Romanos' bond has recently been reduced from $1.1 million to $600,000, as reported by KSAT. The bond reduction took place in 186th District Court on Friday, February 9, 2024. Charles Bunk, Romanos' lawyer, claimed that the initial bond amount was too high, and he also described the same as a "tool of oppression" used to ensure that she stays behind bars until the indictment takes place.

According to authorities, Savanah Soto was in the front seat, while her boyfriend was found dead in the back seat. In the arrest affidavit, as reported by KSAT, Guerra had gone to Christopher's residence to sell marijuana. Guerra allegedly pointed a gun at him, which Christopher then "manipulated," resulting in Soto and then Guerra getting shot. SAPD is allegedly the only killer in the case, while his dad assisted in disposing of the bodies.
