Add another one to the serial killer annals

Meet 48-year-old Juana Barraza, recently arrested in Mexico on suspicion of being the “Little Old Lady Killer”:

The suspect, identified as Juana Barraza, 48, told reporters at the

scene of the latest killing Wednesday that she had killed 82-year-old

Ana Maria Reyes — but she denied involvement in at least seven similar

murders of elderly women since 2003.

However, police said evidence linked Barraza to at least 10 other killings.

Barraza was held outside Reyes’ home by officers, who allowed reporters to interview the suspect, a standard practice in Mexico.

“Yes,

pay for it, that doesn’t mean they’re going to hang all the crimes on

me.”

Asked if she was the serial killer, Barraza said, “No.”

Asked how many murders she had committed, she replied, “This is the

first.”
