Victor Cabrera Extradited from Mexico to U.S.

Homicide suspect Victor Cabrera was originally arrested in Guadalajara, Mexico on April 11, 2016 and had been awaiting extradition procedures in Mexico since that time. Cabrera had been a fugitive since September 28, 2008 after murdering his girlfriend, Roshni Singh, at the couple’s residence in the 3000 block of Bayer Drive inMarina, California. Subsequent law enforcement investigation showed that Singh was murdered in Marina although her body was located inside her own vehicle, which was found in the city of Monterey, California. Cabrera is a citizen of the United States and a resident of the state of California. He fled to Mexico to avoid prosecution after murdering Singh.

On Thursday, December 8, 2016, Victor Cabrera was extradited back into the United States to stand trial in the murder of Roshni Singh. He was transported to Monterey County by law enforcement personnel from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Marina Police Department Investigations Bureau  and assistance from the Monterey Peninsula’s Regional Violence and Narcotics Team (PRVNT). Cabrera was booked into the Monterey County Jail in Salinas, California. Cabrera will be arraigned on December 9, at 1:30 p.m. at Salinas Superior Court.

The Marina Police Department would like to extend its thanks to all of the agencies involved in the apprehension and extradition of Victor Cabrera; the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the city of Monterey (California) Police Department, the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office, and numerous law enforcement authorities in the Mexico. Their perseverance and commitment made it possible to find and return Cabrera to face justice for the crimes he committed. Their efforts made justice and closure possible for Roshni Singh, her family, and her many friends and supporters.
