Many sides to Rojas’s personality became clear when he had an affair with Lopez and kept this part of his life secret from his family.

What happened to Dioneth Lopez?

In February 2020, Dioneth Lopez, then 21 years old, went from California to Seattle to meet Alejandro J. Aguilera Rojas, the man she was seeing behind her back.

Clallam County sheriff’s officers found Dioneth Lopez’s dead body off of a logging road in the Olympic National Forest on February 14, 2020. The exam done by the King County Medical Examiner’s Office showed that she died from multiple injuries caused by blunt and sharp force. Police found a broken and bloody tequila bottle, a box cutter, and a knife near her body, which painted a very sad picture of the crime scene.

Police were able to connect Lopez with Alejandro J. Aguilera Rojas thanks to security footage from a Sequim convenience store. This evidence, along with the fact that their cell phones could be tracked, led police back to Rojas’ house.  Later, Rojas admitted what he did, saying it was in self-defense because Lopez had threatened to hurt his wife and child.  Because Lopez tried to stab him with a knife, he hit her on the head with a tequila bottle to protect himself, according to him.  Surveillance video and phone records helped the investigation find out the disturbing details of their secret relationship.
