Lina María López

criminal

Lina María López, alias 'Peluca', is a Colombian woman who was recently captured in Cartagena after being a fugitive for 20 years. She was wanted for the brutal murder of a police officer in Manizales, which she committed in 2005. During her time on the run, she managed to assume a new identity, establishing herself as a recognized businesswoman in Cartagena, where she married and had two children. López's capture was made possible through advanced forensic techniques that matched her fingerprints to her prior criminal record. She is now facing a 34-year prison sentence for the murder and additional charges for identity fraud and domestic violence.
