Lorenzo Flores Ocampo was 27 and a resident of Salinas, California when he died on April 10, 2018. Born July 11, 1990, in Mexico City, his family held visitation and a funeral service on April 18, 2018, at Alta Vista Mortuary in Salinas.

Authorities linked his death to a string of violent incidents attributed to a group described as the murder squad, accused of carrying out coordinated shootings and homicides using multiple vehicles and gunmen. Several people were arrested and charged in connection with those activities, including Ryan Meza and Joseph Garcia, who faced state and federal charges related to murder and conspiracy.

The case reflects the broader effort to address gang-related violence in Salinas and to hold those responsible accountable. If anyone knew Lorenzo, his movements before April 10, 2018, or has information about the murder squad’s activities, please share what is known with investigators.
