Officials are searching for an illegal migrant suspected of murdering his social justice activist girlfriend in Illinois less than two years after immigration officials released him after he pleaded guilty to kidnapping an ex-girlfriend.
Gabriel Calixto Pichardo, 25, is accused of fatally stabbing Emma Shafer, 24, in her Springfield home in July. He is wanted on three first-degree murder charges and one aggravated domestic battery charge.
Federal agents are working alongside the Springfield, Ill., Police Department to track down Calixto Picardo.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Marshals Service told Just the News on Monday that the agency does not have any confirmation as to whether Pichardo is or is not currently in the United States.
The Marshals are now offering $5,000 to any person with information leading to Calixto Picardo's arrest.
The Marshals Service confirmed to Just the News that he had a previous kidnapping charge....
Documents related to that 2018 incident show that Calixto Pichardo previously said his mother was fleeing abuse in Mexico when she brought him to the United States at the age of 5 and he was granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status a decade later.
Kathryn O'Brien told local outlet WAND last week that she dated Calixto Pichardo in high school and he stalked her after she broke up with him. He eventually went to her grandmother's house and held a knife to her throat, and O'Brien filed a restraining order against him, as shown in court filings.
Shortly thereafter, Calixto Picardo used a gun to force her into his car, she said. He brought her to a motel where he threatened to rape her, and police records show he also had rope and a knife.
