During the victim's funeral, the family noticed his knuckles were badly bruised which they believe showed he tried to defend himself from the possible Stockton serial killer.
She's talking about the night her dad was killed in Oakland last year. A murder that is now being linked to five additional murders in Stockton and being investigated as the work of a possible serial killer. He is one of the five murder victims who are Hispanic.
"Finding out that a serial killer had killed my dad, the memories came back and emotionally I'm still not over it yet," said Vazquez. Ines says her dad didn't have a permanent home when he was killed but would clean cars and do other odd jobs to make money. She says he was likely staying in his car at the time of the attack."We know he tried defending himself because the day of his funeral, we saw on his knuckles it looked like he had defended himself, it looked like he was bruised up from his knuckles," said Vazquez.
Oakland police haven't given specifics on what happened to Miguel Vazquez or if he did in fact try to defend himself, but Ines says, detectives told her he was shot multiple times. Sadly, the last time Ines saw her father was at her middle school graduation. She'll soon graduate high school with just a memory of the joy he once brought her.
