After learning of the brutal murder of Letty Cando, a 33-year-old nurse, committed by Jhonny Caiza, a relative of the murderer would have confessed that Caiza had raped her from the age of 9 to 19. The young woman was a victim of sexual assault for 10 years, according to Galo Muñoz, deputy director of Dinased during an interview. Likewise, it is known that Caiza would have had a previous investigation for harassment of a woman.
The shocking femicide of Letty Cando, a 33-year-old nurse, has generated deep consternation in the community due to the extreme violence of the act. On September 8, 2023, her body was found dismembered and buried in a park in Quito. Letty, originally from Loja, lived in the capital and worked as a nursing assistant at the IESS health center in the southwest area. She leaves behind an eight-year-old son who resides with her grandmother in Loja. Her family traveled to Quito to claim her remains and take them back to her hometown.
The tragic events began on the night of September 2, 2023, when Letty attended a party with a friend and then they went to a bar on Avenida República, north of Quito, where she met Johnny C. This individual proposed to continue the celebration at his home in the Bellavista Alto neighborhood, an invitation accepted by Letty and three other people. According to witnesses, Letty fell asleep in a room in Johnny’s house while the others left the place. Her disappearance led to a complaint from her family, which triggered the intervention of the Dinased in the ongoing investigation to clarify this chilling event.
