On March 31, Abdygapparova was driving with her boyfriend Ramon Hernandez, a registered sex offender, and his friend Santos Minjarez when they saw Rosado on a bus stop. Minjarez tried to steal her bag, but the woman resisted, and they pulled her into the car. Hernadez drove them away to a motel where the victim was beaten, raped and killed. Then they buried the body. Abdygapparova was involved in disposing of the evidence. On April 5, she filed a written statement to the police describing the assault, rape and killing of Rosado. Despite being considered a witness at first, she was eventually sentenced to a life prison term in 2005. Hernandez and Minjarez were sentenced to capital punishment. Hernandez was executed in 2012 and Minjarez died of a disease the same year. At the time of arrest, Abdygapparova was five month pregnant from Hernandez. She gave birth to her son in prison.
