Adriana Saucedo was 27 and lived in Portage, Indiana. Her life ended after a November 19, 2019 meeting arranged over Facebook to buy marijuana and an iPhone. Inside the car, 16-year-old Shaun Thompson shot and killed her. The teens then took her body to the abandoned Horace S. Norton Elementary School in Gary and left it in the gym; it was not discovered for two days.

Portage police checked Saucedo’s Facebook messages, located Silas at his high school and, with his mother present, questioned him; he led investigators to the body and the three were arrested. All three defendants later pleaded guilty to charges related to the robbery and murder. Shaun Thompson pleaded guilty in March 2021 to a felony count of murder in the perpetration of a robbery under a plea deal that exposed him to a 55-year prison term with five years to be served on probation.

Does anyone have information about Adriana’s activities that night or about the Facebook contact that led to the meeting?
