Abstract

It was past midnight when Dora Barrios and Betty Nuñez Zeiss stumbled upon José Díaz's beaten body--two stab wounds, broken bones, and severe facial damage. The girls alerted the neighbors, who rushed him to the hospital, but to no avail. In the following days, the Los Angeles Times published various articles about the murder of the twenty-two-year-old.
