I'm usually not one who speaks ill of the dead, but usually when an American, ends up dead in Mexico, from foul play, some kind of vice is usually
involved, than just a random homocide.
In this case the victim who died from a blunt object or knife in the back depending on what article you're reading, was an undocumented Mexican alien,
whose rose from being a dish washer to a highly successful car dealership owner. Great to see a dish washer rise to be so successful in life.
There seems to be rumors for years this guy was mixed up with organized crime, although it also may be that he had no known convictions.
The fact that someone was once shot dead in the victims home, is too big of a hurdle for me to overcome to make me believe this was just a random
homocide over something like a just a robbery.

In his interview with Bakersfield.com, Rev. Ranger denied any allegations that Arredondo’s businesses were mixed up in organized crime. The reverend
said, “I never saw, ever saw anything that would make me think otherwise.”
Bakersfield.com reported in 2006 that there had been rumors that Arredondo had been arrested in the past in Miami and Las Vegas on drug charges.
Despite those rumors, the website says that there is no criminal record for Arredondo in those states. Local police told the website that although
they have received reports about suspicious activities at Arredondo’s businesses, none have ever been substantiated.
In August 2014, one of Arredondo’s senior employees was shot dead in mysterious circumstances. While in February 2006, a man named Manuel Morales
Abarca, 28, was shot dead in Arredondo’s home in Rosedale. Arredondo was not at home at the time of the shooting.
