Prior to announcing the sentence, the judge compared the murder to that of Charles Manson. The murders were believed to have been committed on 4 February 2018, but the bodies were not discovered until after neighbors reported a foul smell that lead to authorities opening the dwelling to find a dantesque scene.<br \/>\nReportedly, Portorreal has confessed to the crime. What is known is that having murdered his partner, Reyna Isabel Encarnaci\u00f3n Morales and her three children, V\u00edctor Alexander Portorreal Mendoza (Gre\u00f1a, El Met\u00e1lico or Cham\u00e1n Chakra) went to the beach with his friend Krystal Alexandra Tejada, to whom he confessed that he had done something bad to his partner but did not give details. He pawned a tablet belonging to one of the children to get RD$500 to go to the beach.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Public Prosecution Service, having committed the crime, Portorreal Mendoza carried on with his normal life, and the following day, 5 February met with Krystal and then went to his partner\u2019s father\u2019s house in San Carlos in the National District to get clothes for the children. The father expressed interest in seeing his daughter and children but was told to leave it for the weekend because the house was in disarray.<\/p>\n<p>The preliminary autopsy report shows that Encarnaci\u00f3n Morales had been raped and had her throat cut, and the two girls had also been raped and they were strangled. The 9-year old boy was strangled the following day.<\/p>\n<p>Portorreal was employed in a Harley Davidson repair shop located on Av.
