Talk:Ángel Maturino Reséndiz/Archive 1

Different Places of Birth Listed
The body text lists Izúcar de Matamoros, Puebla, Mexico.

The sidebar has East Los, California, USA which expands to East Los Angeles, California.

I assume the Mexico location is correct but don't want to edit without verifying. Brianmarx (talk) 19:09, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

First two victims
I have tried to edit the Wikipedia page referring to Angel Maturino Resendiz and his victims several times. My son, Jesse Lee Howell, Age 19, and his fiance, Wendy Von Huben, Age 16, were his 'first two victims'. Prosecution for the murder of my son in the state of Florida was waived, in exchange for the location of his fiance's body. My son was found murdered on March 23, 1997, thus making him the FIRST victim.

Show me a news page and link attributing this all to Resendiz. I cannot verify any of this. WhisperToMe 03:30, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Never mind, I found out that Resendiz attributed himself to the murders. I cited evidence. WhisperToMe 03:46, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for editing the information on your page. As we pass 8 years and too quickly approach 9 years since my son's murder, it helps to know he is not completely forgotten.

Plagarism
Much of the information about Resendiz's victims was copied verbatim from my web site. My report on Resendiz is posted at http://www.txexecutions.org/reports/368.asp. It was not attributed, or even listed as a reference.

I am not a Wikipedia editor and don't know how to handle this or flag it. My report on Resendiz is not copyrighted, so it can be used here. I just think proper attribution should be given. David Carson 74.2.251.122 (talk) 18:30, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Able bodied
"Reséndiz never killed able-bodied people, having not himself been a physically strong or intimidating individual. " Removed this since there's no support in the article. Please add back if correct, with supporting detail of victims. Rich  Farmbrough 19:54 28  February 2006 (UTC).

False Claim
I removed the claim that he was a doctor. Looking at a timeline of his life, I was unable to find any claim that he had attended college, nor any time he was in one place long enough to get any kind of degree. He was a transient, who was constantly on the move and rarely stayed in one place more then a few months. 72.161.218.182 15:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Immigration angle
One of the big themes at the time of the arrest was the fact that immigration's records were still so dependent on index-card based files, and that because he had so many aliases, it was easy for him to be caught-and-released (I seem to recall it was something like 16 times it was eventually determined he'd been released by the then-INS) without any connection being made that it was the same person. I'll try to research it, but at any given time, I'm researching 10 or 15 articles, so it'd be good if someone else researched this as well. Lawikitejana (talk) 22:17, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Why is he still on the 10 Most Wanted List?
He was executed in 2006. He's been dead for five years. Yet Wikipedia has him on the main 10 Most Wanted page with his name linked to this article. This is bizarre. There cannot be a good reason for this. Wlegro (talk) 02:00, 24 June 2011 (UTC) bee boo bee boo — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.15.21.52 (talk) 03:29, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Apparent dates discrepancy
Under the heading of "Death" it states he was executed on June 27, 2006, but later says he was pronounced dead at 8:05 p.m. on the 28th. Did the authorities take a full day to pronounce him dead, or is one of the dates incorrect?

Alleged Mexican Victims
Do we have any information on his alleged Mexican victims (or possible Canadians, for that matter), or do we only care about American victims here? 2601:87:4400:AF2:B8E0:46B8:177A:DAC7 (talk) 20:04, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
