Victor Alias, 16 has been found guilty of capital murder for the brutal death of 15 year old Corriann Cervantes and was sentenced to life. Corriann Cervantes had been Alias classmate and friend. Cervantes being their friend went with the boys to hang out not thinking anything about it. Victor Alias, and his friend Jose Reyes, now 18 yrs lured Corriann into an abandoned building telling her they were going to smoke some weed, that’s the last thing that happened that day.
Corriann entered the building with them and the boys wanted to have sex with her. Both boys attacked her instead.Victor Alias started strangling her with his belt, and Corriann fought for her life the best that she could. As Corriann Cervantes was being choked Victor Alias decided to grab the toilet tank lid made out of porcelain and proceeded to break it over her head and face. That was just the start of brutal beating Corriann Cervantes endured.
As Corriann fought them both Alias and Reyes she scratched and bit one of them. That infuriated the two more and they began stabbing her with a tool more than 60 times , then they took and used a curtain rod to take her eyes out of her head and carved and upside down cross on her body. Corriann Cervantes died from the injuries she received in that building. After Coriann died Alias and Reyes then raped the poor girl and left her there. Corriann Cervantes was found after she had been reported missing by someone who knew her. She was so badly beat that her friend didn’t know it was her at first until they noticed the clothes she had been wearing the last time she had been seen.
Reyes claimed that he sold his soul to Satan and sold Alias soul to and that Satan told him they had to kill Corriann Cervantes he told authorities. Victor Alias, believed Reyes and went along with it. Assistant Harris County District Attorney John Jordan stated “During the course of events, this teenager screamed, ‘Why are you doing this to me?’ and attempted to run from the apartment,” “They stopped her and this became a kidnapping and eventually she was killed,” Brian Rogers, Houston Chronicle, 2/11/14.
Corriann Cervantes was a bright young 15 yr old girl whose life was recklessly taken away from her. Corriann’s father, Cory Cervantes, has described her as having a big heart, and loved photography. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
Victor Alias showed no remorse for killing Corriann Cervantes from the time of his arrest to to his sentencing. He will spend the rest of his life behind bars in a Texas prison.
